About This Item
(Johannesburg: Jonathan Ball, 2015) 9781868426552. 232 x 152 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. ix + (i) + 333, incl. index; plates. Fine condition. "In the dying years of apartheid, a most extraordinary story hit the headlines. Agent Olivia Forsyth had escaped from ANC imprisonment in Angola. Upon her return home she was feted as a hero by the government. In a flurry of media appearances and press releases, Forsyth claimed to have infiltrated the ANC and passed on vital information. Is that what really happened? In the world of espionage, truth is the first victim and nothing is as it seems. Here, for the first time and in her own words, South Africa's most notorious apartheid spy lays bare the story of her life." .
