Book Review of In Secret Service

In Secret Service
Helpful Score: 1


Was Ian Fleming (author of James Bond) really a covert agent during WWII? Well, Fleming told you all about it, in his own hand, when a safe deposit box had to be opened before scheduled in 2014. If you didn't know it was a novel, it very well could be a true story. While not as exciting a read as a James Bond/Mitch Rapp/Gabriel Allon thriller, the story seems real and completely plausible. I picked up the book for $2 on a whim and was glad I did.
