Almost unbelievable WW2 spy/deception story. The main story involves dropping a dead fake soldier with fake belongings near a Spanish beach to trick the Axis powers of the European invasion location. But the detail about a British captain, originally an undertaker, first on shore in Sicily, digging his own 3 foot grave, having some tea, and then taking a nap while the guns were set up is just fantastic.
One of the many fascinating WWII stories told beautifully. Must read for WWII history buffs.
What an absolutely bizarre story! Unforgettable
Another outstanding book. Macintyre‘s books are tremendous in audiobook form.
Can I get away with these for #silhouettesoncover? I'm going to try, anyway!

Took me a while to find a book that is about a spy! Slightly behind on the challenge. But hopefully I'll be caught up later today! #photoadaynov16
I'm not a spy novel reader. Obviously.
