Reviews
"The story of MI5's transformation… is fascinating. So too is Rimington's account of her rise in what was very definitely a man's world." -- The Guardian "The most effective Secret Service is the one which is secret. She should shut up." -- Bernard Ingham "Stella Rimington deserves our thanks for resisting the bullying of the cabinet office and many of her colleagues and associates in Whitehall and pushing on to publication." -- New Statesman From the Trade Paperback edition., Was she right to publish? Most certainly. If we are to have a mature attitude to our intelligence services, we need this kind of inside account - it is vital in stripping away mystique and building understanding, "The story of MI5's transformation… is fascinating.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
