(FROM BACK COVER) In this handbook written to accompany the 10-part BBC TV series, former MI6 officer and "Spy School" teacher Harry Ferguson reveals everything you'll need to know. He shows how to lie without being caught, how to follow someone without being spotted and how to spot those who might be following you. He reveals the secrets of walk-ins, gangplank approaches, false flag operations, dead letter boxes and brush contacts. There are sections on how to construct an alternative identity, how to check your house for bugging devices and your car for bombs, how to disappear in a crowd by "going grey," how to survive the toughest interrogation and how agents are talent-spotted and recruited. Packed with examples and anecdotes from the series and illustrated throughout with freeze frames of key moments in the lives of the eight novice spies, from embarrassing mistakes, through the mirror world of surveillance and counter-surveillance, to eventual success, "Spy" is a fascinating account of the TV series, the world of espionage, and an essential handbook for the spy in all of us.
