		The book under review deals with the spectacular case of the Turkish spy Elyesa Bazna, code named "Cicero" by the German ambassador to Turkey, the highest paid spy in history up to that time.
		Operation Cicero was full of ironies: before hiring Bazna as a valet the British did not run a background check; had they done so they would have had plenty of reasons to suspect him as a shady character and thus not hire him.
		The ambassador was highly careless and negligent of his strict instructions not to remove confidential materials form his embassy office.

		'Cicero', codenamed for his eloquence, was Knatchbull-Hugessen's valet, Elyesa Bazna - in Persico's words, a 'swarthy, compact Albanian in his forties, heavily browed and fl-moustachioed'.
		Take this, for instance, from 1922: 'It has been said' of Arthur Nikisch, the Hungarian conductor, and was now being said again, 'that his perfect economy of the art of the stick was due to the fact that he was temperamentally lazy and hated any unnecessary physical exertion'.
		So far as I know, Elyesa Bazna wasn't honoured with a Times obituary of his own, his walk-on part in HKH's send-off his only claim to that particular brand of immortality.

	The Intelligence Wave
		Not only does he include excellent thumbnail sketches of familiar German military leaders, such as Keitel, Halder, Guderian, Canaris, and Reinhard Gehlen (whose worth Kahn thinks is overestimated), he also discusses a number of less familiar figures.
		As a result, individuals such as interrogator Major Heinz Ju nge, cryptologist Lieutenant Fritz Neeb, and spies Fritz Kauders (code named Max) and Elyesa Bazna (Cicero) emerge as significant persons in their own right.
		In spite of Kahn's wide-ranging knowledge of the subject, his insights are seldom overstated and should fascinate both the initiated and uninitiated in intelligence matters.
