For Your Eyes Only

Emily Sweet of Bloomsbury and Peter Dawson of Grade Design performed miracles in an astonishingly short space of time to bring this project to fruition. Kate Johnson’s copy-editing was, as usual, superbly efficient. Ed Victor and his team of highly trained agents have completed another mission brilliantly. Michael Fishwick, Trâm-Anh Doan and the rest of the staff at Bloomsbury have been, as ever, a delight to work with. Finally, my love and thanks to my family for allowing Ian Fleming and James Bond to move in with us.

Agent Zigzag
One December night in 1942, a Nazi parachutist landed in a Cambridgeshire field. His mission: to sabotage the British war effort. His name was Eddie Chapman, but he would shortly become MI5’s Agent Zigzag. Dashing and louche, courageous and unpredictable, the traitor was a patriot inside, and the villain a hero. The problem for Chapman, his many lovers and his spymasters was knowing who he was. Ben Macintyre weaves together diaries, letters, photographs, memories and top-secret MI5 files to create the exhilarating account of Britain’s most sensational double agent.
‘This is the most amazing book, full of fascinating and hair-raising true life adventures . . . it would be impossible to recommend it too highly’
Mail on Sunday
‘Superb. Meticulously researched, splendidly told, immensely entertaining and often very moving’
John le Carré
‘It is unlikely that a more engaging study of espionage and deception will be published this year’
