Operação Secreta

Ben Macintyre's detailed recounting makes this historical event feel so vivid. I'm curious what drew him to this particular operation among many wartime stories.

The use of a dead man as a spy raises interesting questions about ethics in wartime. How did readers feel about the deception’s moral implications?

The personal stories behind the operation made it more relatable, but I wonder how they chose which figures to focus on and which to omit.
