Hitler's spy : the true story of Arthur Owens, Double Agent Snow
Hayward, James, 1966-2014
Paperback
Based on recently de-classified MI5 files and previously unpublished sources, 'Hitler's Spy' is the story of a secret Battle of Britain, fought by double-agent Arthur Owens and his opposing spymasters, Thomas 'Tar' Robertson of MI5 and Nikolaus Ritter of the Abwehr, as well as the tragic love triangle between Owens, his wife Irene, and his mistress Lily Bade. The evocative, fast-paced narrative moves from seedy south London pubs to North Sea trawlers, from chic Baltic spa resorts to Dartmoor gaol, populated by a colourful rogue's gallery of double-cross agents.
