Summary
“The kind of history that you will only find in the deepest part of the archives;” Herbert Werlin, PhD - World Bank ResearchThink James Bond on his first assignment. Then think again of Casablanca, secret atomic bombs, beautiful women spies… and high political stakes and you have a sense of what this book is about…and it’s a true story. It takes Jim Heaphey (no, not James Bond) through the alleyways and bathhouses of Casablanca, the exotic Arabian Nights - like fair in Marrakech, the settings of the privileged in Cairo and the hillside villages of Cyprus. The story unveils the workings of MI6, the CIA, French Security Force, the Mossad and the KGB. In so doing, Legerdemain brings to the reader an understanding of the Islamist mind set and sets the stage for the affairs of the Twenty-First Century.
