Although it’s fiction there’s a really interesting book from @aspyalone.bsky.social on this called “A spy alone” which explores exactly this topic in the modern age through the eyes of someone who recently retired from about 20 years inside of SIS and was very familiar with the topic in real life.

“Crème de la crime”. Not that I’m really a crime novelist but @waterstones.bsky.social Victoria are paying me a compliment I’ll happily take.

Because he’s a Russian asset. How much did he transfer to spsteen?
Ukrainian intelligence noted that Trump is being overly aggressive in trying to force Zelenskyy to surrender territory to Russia. It is hinted that it appears to be very desperate and raises the question of why Trump is now suddenly pushing so hard.

Just finished a couple. A Spy Alone - Charles Beaumont.
Really good. A clever Le Carre style plot overlaid on the politically apathetic society that began to emerge in the twenty teens. I’ll absolutely read this again.
