He wasn't recruited; he was not paid. He tried the Brits first but was turned away. He became Allen Dulles' most important spy, operating

A great and important historical novelIf you are a student of history or simply enjoy historical novels you will love this book. It is an accurate depiction of the life of the most important spy of WWII for the fledging American OSS (predecessor to the CIA). It also offers interesting insights into the minds of two of the most important American intelligence operators in US history: Allen Dulles and William Priest. The English translation leaves the reader with a few notable grammatical

The Honest Spy was an Amazon recommendation that I am glad I snatched up. It is the fictionalized account of Fritz Kolbe, a German foreign office employee during WW II. Kolbe was stationed in S. Africa when hostilities in Europe broke out. He was opposed to the Nazi regime and their fanaticism when he was called back to the Fatherland.

This is a fabulous book! A real page-turner that kept me reading well into the night.

Still, it felt a bit as if I were being led along and educated as I read. I was given a Netgalley advanced reader's copy of this book.
