La storia della trasformazione dell'MI5 è affascinante. Così come lo è il racconto di Rimington della sua ascesa in quello che era decisamente un mondo di uomini.' Guardian Le memorie illuminanti della prima direttrice generale donna dell'MI5 Stella Rimington ha lavorato per l'MI5 tra il 1969 e il 1996, uno dei periodi più turbolenti e drammatici della storia mondiale. Lavorando in tutti i principali campi di responsabilità del Servizio (anti-sovversione, anti-spionaggio e antiterrorismo), è diventata in successione direttrice di tutte e tre le branche e infine direttrice generale dell'MI5 nel 1992. È stata la prima donna a ricoprire l'incarico e la prima direttrice generale il cui nome è stato annunciato pubblicamente al momento della nomina. In Open Secret, continua il suo lavoro di apertura al pubblico di elementi del lavoro dei nostri servizi di sicurezza, rivelando la sorprendente cultura dell'MI5 e facendo luce su alcuni degli eventi più affascinanti della storia del XX secolo dal punto di vista di un insider. Stella Rimington è anche l'autrice dei romanzi At Risk e Secret Asset.
