In a makeshift laboratory built on a golf course in Maryland,
chemist Stanley Lovell led a secret team of scientists that
developed the secret gadgets and weapons of the Second World War.
Their 'Dirty Tricks Department' was the real-life equivalent of
James Bond's legendary Q Branch. If a spy or saboteur needed a
forged passport for cover, a silent pistol for executions, an
incendiary device for starting fires, or a cyanide pill to kill
themselves with before being captured alive, the scientists created
it. Moreover, they developed poisons to assassinate foreign
leaders, chemical and biological weapons to deploy against enemy
soldiers, and truth drugs to interrogate prisoners of war. The
Dirty Tricks Department is the first book to focus on the daring,
exciting, and often tragic exploits of the men and women who made
and used these devices. Lovell and his team exerted a
disproportionally large influence on history. Not only were they
integral to the Allied victory, but they left a dark legacy that
has, until now, gone mainly unacknowledged.
