About the book

Leo Marks's Between Silk and Cyanide is a memoir of his work as a cryptographer for Britain's Special Operations Executive during the Second World War. Marks developed and improved coding systems used by agents operating in occupied Europe and became deeply aware of the deadly consequences of weak security. The book combines intelligence history, cryptography and vivid personal recollection.
