: :
: One April morning in 1943, a sardine fisherman spotted the corpse of a :
: British soldier floating in the sea off the coast of Spain and set in train:
: a course of events that would change the course of the Second World War. :
: Operation Mincemeat was the most successful wartime deception ever :
: attempted, and certainly the strangest. It hoodwinked the Nazi espionage :
: chiefs, sent German troops hurtling in the wrong direction, and saved :
: thousands of lives by deploying a secret agent who was different, in one :
: crucial respect, from any spy before or since: he was dead. His mission: to:
: convince the Germans that instead of attacking Sicily, the Allied armies :
: planned to invade Greece. :
: The brainchild of an eccentric RAF officer and a brilliant Jewish :
: barrister, the great hoax involved an extraordinary cast of characters :
: including a famous forensic pathologist, a gold-prospector, an inventor, a :
: beautiful secret service secretary, a submarine captain, three novelists, a:
: transvestite English spymaster, an irascible admiral who loved fly-fishing,:
: and a dead Welsh tramp. Using fraud, imagination and seduction, Churchill's:
: team of spies spun a web of deceit so elaborate and so convincing that they:
: began to believe it themselves. The deception started in a windowless :
: basement beneath Whitehall. It travelled from London to Scotland to Spain :
: to Germany. And it ended up on Hitler's desk. Ben Macintyre, bestselling :
: author of Agent Zigzag, weaves together private documents, photographs, :
: memories, letters and diaries, as well as newly released material from the :
: intelligence files of MI5 and Naval Intelligence, to tell for the first :
: time the full story of Operation Mincemeat.
