A thoughtful, provocative analysis of practically every possible moral dilemma that is ever likely to prick the conscience of an assiduous case officer. The scenarios presented by James Olson, himself a veteran insider, have the authentic whiff of cordite that suggest little has been drawn from his imagination, but much has been looted from the operational files. --Nigel West, author of THE THIRD SECRET: THE CIA, SOLIDARITY AND THE KGB'S PLOT TO KILL THE POPE
