About the book

Ben Macintyre's Operation Mincemeat tells the remarkable true story of a British deception operation during the Second World War. British intelligence planted false documents on the body of a dead man in an attempt to convince Germany that the Allies planned to invade Greece rather than Sicily. The operation combined espionage, improvisation and careful psychological manipulation and became one of the war's most successful deceptions.
