Spycatcher

For five years we bugged and burgled our way across London at the State's behest, while pompous bowler-hatted civil servants in Whitehall pretended to look the other way. Peter Wright on his early years in MI5 No book this century has attracted more attention than Spycatcher. It made front-page headlines around the world as the British government tried desperately to suppress Peter Wright's explosive revelations. Spycatcher tells with startling frankness and detail the devastating story of a government agency which operates outside the law, where the only rule was the 11th commandment: 'Thou shalt not get caught'. Spycatcher is the first real shaft of light to penetrate the murky world of spy and counter-spy. That world will never seem the same again.
