About this title

Review:

'A sensation.', Sunday Times

'Utterly absorbing.', The Times

'Genuinely shocking ... Person after person who was taken in, deceived, gulled, who knew the officers for years - who thought of them as best friends, or lovers, or life partners, or the father of their children, had no inkling that they were part of an elaborate state-sponsored spy-ring that intruded on the most intimate parts of their lives. -- Carole Cadwalladr, Observer

'Were these stories not real, they would read like an airport thriller... The work of these authors is one of the best arguments in favour of a free press you'll ever read.' -- Alan White, New Statesman
