Review:
Often reads like the latest entry from Ludlum or Le Carre fascinating.
The story of our government s role in using highly trained professionals to do certain unsavory but very necessary types of undercover/clandestine missions is not often pretty but has been in need of telling for some time. I can t think of a more knowledgeable and experienced person to tell that very important story than Roland Haas.
"An incredible story of derring-do well told, including international intrigue, assassination, and deception, with a dash of Hells Angels and personal redemption mixed in. Not only does Haas reaffirm the old adage that 'truth is stranger than fiction, ' but his is an account likely to cause considerable heartburn at the CIA, for which he worked as a contract employee for nearly three decades."--Don Bohning, author of "The Castro Obsession: U.S. Covert Operations Against Cuba, 1959-1965"--Don Bohning (05/29/2007)
"Haas's tale is definitely entertaining. . . .[his] insights into the cultures he encounters are often engrossing, and he goes into fascinating detail about aspects of his 'profession.' " Sam Jemielity, Playboy.com--Sam Jemielity"Playboy.com" (07/05/2007)"
