Publisher's Synopsis
Updated and expanded with brand new material on the War on Terrorism, including insider reports on the Bali bombing, discussion of M15's tragic lack of intelligence on September 11th, and how it is now regarded as a massive intelligence failure. Defending the Realm provides a rare insight into the secret world of M15 and breaks new ground in revealing its covert techniques-from phone-tapping and mail tampering to the running of agents and surveillance operations. This new edition also provides a profile of M15's new female director, Hon. Eliza Manningham-Buller.
