"This exciting fast-moving age of ours has produced many men, and women, as articulate as they are distinguished. In reading their autobiographies I often wondered what kind of a story would emerge if one enquired into the life of an ordinary member of an extraordinary organisation, such as Special Operations Executive."

"During the last war many of Britain's little known intelligence agents were essentially cosmopolitans, men who felt at home in many countries and belonged to none. What were the circumstances that induced such international-minded people to take part in a war, and to serve one side rather than the other?"

"In my search for an answer to this question I met Jan Felix, who had served with Special Operations Executive. I found in him a man who had refused to become a mere pawn in the power-game of politicans, and who emerged through great ordeals finely tempered and free of all hatred or cynicism, a man worth knowing."

"Here, then, is the story of Jan Felix, a little-known cosmopolitian, who became a British Intelligence Officer."
