The Second World War Chief of MI6 said Alexander Wilson had
'remarkable gifts as a writer of fiction, and no sense of
responsibility in using them!' Wilson's three year career in the
Secret Intelligence Service ended when the country's spy chiefs
decided his creativity got the better of his grasp of reality. His
'secret lives' extended to his private life. Four wives and four
families; not necessarily one after the other. This book, along
with the memoir of his third wife Alison, is the foundation of the
'Mrs Wilson' series premiered in the USA by Masterpiece on PBS in
2019. The dramatisation stars his award-winning granddaughter Ruth
Wilson who plays the role of Alison. Ruth is also one of the
executive producers of the series broadcast by the BBC to critical
acclaim in the UK at the end of 2018 with their highest audiences
for midweek drama. Tim Crook unravels more of the mysteries of this
extraordinary story in the second (US/International) edition of
'Alec' Alexander Wilson's biography.
