An excellent article by the author.
1. This is noting information on agents, etc, has been in the public realm for many years. eg. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agent_handling . 2. Also a great summary of Nelson's information collection and control system. Posted by plantagenet, Sunday, 3 November 2019 11:53:23 AM

I've finished Warren Reed's “An Elephant on Your Nose” and it is one of the best spy novels I've read in some time.
“An Elephant on Your Nose” fills a niche in combining the broad political sweep of relations between China, Japan and South Korea mixed with the interpersonal relations of their international intelligence and security people. Usually opposing intelligence services seek to work together against terrorists. So the main theme is a gripping counter-terrorism operation with unexpected twists. A very accomplished, multilingual British female MI6 spy stars. She's sure to appear in sequels. Booko looks like a good site to buy it - see http://booko.com.au/9780648283973/An-Elephant-on-Your-Nose Posted by plantagenet, Sunday, 3 November 2019 12:01:43 PM
