About the book

Benjamin Cowburn's No Cloak, No Dagger recounts his work for the Special Operations Executive in occupied France during the Second World War. Operating undercover, he must establish contacts, organise sabotage and maintain secrecy under the threat of German detection. Practical preparation and the trustworthiness of individuals matter as much as nerve. Cowburn's account brings wartime espionage down to the level of journeys, meetings and decisions made with incomplete information, offering a firsthand view of the demands placed on an agent working behind enemy lines.
