Historia
Eddie Chapman was a charming criminal, a con man, and a philanderer. He was also one of the most remarkable double agents Britain has ever produced. Inside the traitor was a man of loyalty; inside the villain was a hero. The problem for Chapman, his spymasters, and his lovers was to know where one persona ended and the other began.

Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Historia
In 1978, CIA maverick Jack Platt and KGB agent Gennady Vasilenko were new arrivals on the Washington, D.C., intelligence scene, with Jack working out of the CIA's counterintelligence office and Gennady out of the Soviet Embassy. Both men were assigned to seduce the other into betraying his country in the final days of the Cold War, but instead the men ended up becoming the best of friends. Theirs is a friendship that never should have happened, and their story is chock full of treachery, darkly comic misunderstandings, bureaucratic inanity, and landmark intelligence breakthroughs.

In the boot were six homemade pipe bombs, all linked to detonate at the same time from a single call on a brand-new pay-as-you-go phone found on the target. Special Branch also found Chinese Type 56 assault rifles with eight full magazines of ammunition. His target was a local school. He planned to attack two coaches of teenagers returning home after a school trip to France. Approximately 60 children, their accompanying teachers and their waiting parents.

Exhausting/Don’t bother
Revisado: 07-07-22
I didn’t like this book when it relates to the topic of it. I truly believe that those spies that go around the world really put their lives at much more danger.
I found the pace of the book exhausting. The pace at witch the book was read is incredible fast. It sounded like the reader was in something like an upper.
I really won’t recommend this book at all.

Historia
When Browder’s young Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, was beaten to death in a Moscow jail in 2009, Browder cast aside his business career and made it his life’s mission to pursue justice for Sergei. One of the first steps of that mission was to uncover who had killed Sergei and profited from the $230 million corruption scheme that he had exposed. As Browder and his team tracked the money that flowed out of Russia—through the Baltics and Cyprus and on to Western Europe and the Americas—they discovered that Vladimir Putin himself was one of the beneficiaries of the crime.

This books exemplifies the determination of one man’s need to bring down the power of Putin.
Bill is truly a hero and deserves all the credits for facing Putin and his cronies.
This books is a must read. I couldn’t stop listening to it and I think I finished it in 3 days. If you enjoy learning about international politics then this is for you.

Disappointed
Revisado: 06-30-22
The book starts very boring giving a litany of names their titles.
It’s not till the middle of the book that it starts getting interesting. The last part of the book is a total failure. The book is trying to explain how coding and decoding work at least for several chapters.
I wouldn’t recommend this book and I wish that I could take my one credit back.

Historia
Eric O’Neill was only 26 when he was tapped for the case of a lifetime: a one-on-one undercover investigation of the FBI’s top target, a man suspected of spying for the Russians for nearly two decades, giving up nuclear secrets, compromising intelligence, and betraying US assets. With zero training in face-to-face investigation, O’Neill found himself in a windowless, high-security office in the newly formed Information Assurance Section, tasked officially with helping the FBI secure its outdated computer system against hackers and spies - and unofficially with collecting evidence against his new boss.

I really enjoyed the story especially that the author read it.
I love espionage books and this one makes the list.
I believe that there is too much technical information that I was lost.

Too technical

I enjoyed the book very much but I got bored with all the technical jargon.
I feel like this book is good for people in the technical community.

I couldn’t stopped listening to this because book. I learned so much about North Korea. The story moved me that I almost cried. Now I’m inspired to read more about NK.
How much do we take things for granted? This question makes realized how much I have without thinking about the less fortunate.
Now that the holidays are coming I’m going to volunteer in anyway possible.

Historia
Twenty-five years after her passing, Audrey Hepburn remains the most beloved of all Hollywood stars, known as much for her role as UNICEF ambassador as for films like Roman Holiday and Breakfast at Tiffany's. Several biographies have chronicled her stardom, but none has covered her intense experiences through five years of Nazi occupation in the Netherlands. According to her son, Luca Dotti, "The war made my mother who she was."

Don’t waste your time - didn’t get to listen till the end
Revisado: 11-02-21
This audiobook is the worse I’ve ever listened to. The fist few chapters were about families and marriages. Personally I don’t care to know anything that involves any relationships to one another.
This audiobook was read in a monotone voice without any inflection.
