A gripping true story of wartime espionage. Dundee, 1937. When
housewife Mary Curran became suspicious of hairdresser Jessie
Jordan's frequent trips to Nazi Germany, she had no idea that she
was about to be drawn into an international web of espionage.
Thanks to a tip off from Mary, MI5 and the FBI launched major spy
hunts on both sides of the Atlantic. This is the true story of a
decade-long series of Nazi espionage plots in Britain, Europe and
the United States. It shows how a Nazi spy's letter, posted in New
York and intercepted in Scotland, broke spy rings across Europe and
North America. And it reveals, for the first time, how that letter
marked the genesis of an intelligence and security alliance that
today includes the United States, the UK, Canada, Australia and New
Zealand. 'Fascinating, gripping and expertly researched... an
extraordinary true tale of espionage told with all the drama and
panache of a spy thriller' - Michael Smith, bestselling author of
The Secrets of Station X
