Agent Zigzag

One December night in 1942, a Nazi parachutist landed in a Cambridgeshire field. His mission: to sabotage the British war effort. His name was Eddie Chapman, but he would shortly become MI5's Agent Zigzag. Dashing and louche, courageous and unpredictable, the traitor was a patriot inside, and the villain a hero. The problem for Chapman, his many lovers and his spymasters was knowing who he was. Ben Macintyre weaves together diaries, letters, photographs, memories and top-secret MI5 files to create the exhilarating account of Britain's most sensational double agent.

‘This is the most amazing book, full of fascinating and hair-raising true life adventures . . . it would be impossible to recommend it too highly'
Mail on Sunday

‘Superb. Meticulously researched, splendidly told, immensely entertaining and often very moving'
John le Carré

‘It is unlikely that a more engaging study of espionage and deception will be published this year'
The Times
