Download Kim Philby: The Unknown Story of the KGB's Master-Spy AudioBook Free
Kim Philby, the so-called Third Man in the Cambridge spy band, was the Cool War's most infamous traitor, a Soviet spy in the centre of British brains. Philby joined up with Britain's secret service MI6 during the war and went on to brain the section tasked with rooting out Russian spies before becoming the service's key liaison officer with the CIA. He betrayed a huge selection of United kingdom and US agents to the Russians and compromised numerous businesses inside the Soviet Union. Tim Milne was Philby's closest and oldest friend. They studied at Westminster School together so when Philby joined up with MI6 he immediately recruited Milne as his deputy. Philby's treachery was a huge blow to Milne and, after he retired, he published an extremely revealing description of Philby's amount of time in the secret service. Publication of the memoirs was suspended by MI6 but, after Milne's death this year 2010, his family were established that this insider's profile of the Philby affair be shared. Edited to include newly released top-secret documents showing the way the KGB's professional spy managed to fool MI6 even after he defected to Moscow, this is actually the final word on one of the world's most notorious spies by the MI6 colleague who knew him best, the insider profile of the Philby affair that Britain's spy chiefs didn't want you to hear.
