St Ermins Press, 1998 H/B. 283 pages, condition - this is an ex library book with the usual stamps, the flyleaf has been removed. Behind the cover of an apparently respectable business career, Elliott's nomadic life entangled him in a complex web of deception, srlamorous women, Communist double agents and interrogation at the hands of the Gestapo and the Hungarian secret police. Was the hero who dropped blind into Serbia in 1942 on a mission for Special Operations Executive - and spent much of the war in a Nazi prison camp - a courageous dare-devil or a philandering scoundrel? This is the extraordinary, authentic story of the quest undertaken by Kavan Elliott's son for the truth about his remarkable father. Geoffrey Elliott's meticulous research led him across Europe, tracing the men who captured his father as a British spy in Yugoslavia, imprisoned him in Germany, and expelled him from Hungary in 1949. During the search he discovered that Kavan's personal life was almost as complex and colourful as his clandestine activities: a tale of two families, a bevy of beautiful mistresses, and a business life which ricocheted from Croydon to the Caribbean, and ended in a faked robbery on a sub-post office in Berkshire. From the torture chambers of Budapest to the classified archives of the British Secret Intelligence Service, I Spy reveals an astonishing legacy of espionage, betrayal, romance and double-dealing.. Hard Cover. Good/Good. 6.25" x 9.5". Ex-Library. (more information)
