Recenzii

"A sequence worthy of Catch-22 has the same agency employing agents on both sides, knocking off each other.  But then, Catch-22 was farce-this is serious business, and murder."  -Senator Maurice Hayes, Irish Independent

Notă biografică

    Greg Harkin, an award-winning Belfast journalist for the People newspaper, is the journalist who first broke the story on the Stakeknife affair. He was awarded the 2003 Scoop of the Year award for his work on the story.
    "Martin Ingram" is the pseudonym of an ex-British Army intelligence officer turned whistleblower.  He worked in army intelligence from 1981-84 and 1987-90, working for the FRU, a highly secretive unit, in Northern Ireland. He left the army after deciding that the truth would have to be told about the activities of intelligence agents in Ireland during the Troubles. Since deciding to become a whistleblower, he has written articles for many newspapers, including the Sunday Times, the Guardian, the Irish News, and Andersonstown News.
