Danger is the Password [antikvár]

LIVING DANGEROUSLY'Spies, counterspies, secret agents, informers, intelligence, espionage, underground, undercover, intrigue. Colorful words that describe a life exciting and dangerous. But there is another side to this picture. Spies, for the most part, are not glamorous people, but ordinary folks like those one meets on the street. Spying is a lonely business, because a spy cannot involve anyone else, and one who is caught must suffer alone. He must have a vast knowledge of many little things; he must have patience, discretion, a quick wit, and most of all courage.Some people become spies for their country, some for the sake of adventure, many for money. Whatever their reasons, they live dangerously. One false move and their time is over.There have been spies since the earliest days. There were spies in the Bible. As long as man makes war they will exist. All over the world today there are intrepid men and women playing this most dangerous game of all.P.F.
