Inside Espionage

Throughout his career in the CIA's elite Clandestine Service, David Doyle was the most senior Briton in the entire organisation. Having seen action at D-Day and with OSS, his CIA experiences began with controversy as he was the CIA's Chief of Station in the Congo when Patrice Lumumba was assassinated. For the first time, an insider explains precisely what happened and who the murderes were. Doyle also served in the Far East Division and in Europe and recalls numberous tales, some humorous, some tragic, in which agents were recruited, blackmailed or persuaded to share Cold War secrets.

From his perspective as an intelligence professional Doyle recalls the triumphs and disasters of his long experience and, as one of the CIA's experts on Soviet espionage, offers a fresh perspective on the wholesale betrayals by Rick Ames.
