**** FIVE STARS 'Fascinating . . . Few fictional adventures can outdo those recounted here' The Telegraph Step into the Secret World. Charlotte Philby’s grandfather was the most infamous double agent in history. Inspired to find out about his world, Charlotte discovered that there were plenty of untold stories of courage and secrets and daring . . . And so many were about women.

Featuring top-secret spying info and imagined newspaper articles covering incredible spy stories, this is your chance to find out about the women who hid in the shadows, but deserve to be in the spotlight.
