    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

    Book Preview: #1 Dusko Popov and Johann Johnny Jebsen were friends who met in 1936 at the University of Freiburg in southern Germany. Popov was a law student, while Jebsen was taking an economics degree. They were both Spoilt, Charismatic, and Irresponsible.

    #2 Jebsen was a rich, rootless orphan who had visited Britain as a teenager. He spoke English in preference to German, and dressed like a young Anthony Eden, conservatively elegant.

    #3 In early 1940, Jebsen was living in Dubrovnik, and conducting affairs with at least four women. He had become acquainted with the great English writer P. G. Wodehouse, and told Popov that he had joined the Abwehr, the German military intelligence service, because it saved him from soldiering.

    #4 In 1941, the Interallié was the most important spy network in Nazi-occupied France. It was the creation of one spy, Roman Czerniawski, who had become the most valuable British spy in France. He loathed the Germans and Russians with equal intensity for carving up his country.
