Frank Foley helped thousands of Jews escape from Germany. At the 1961 trial of Adolf Eichmann he was described as a ?Scarlet Pimpernel?, risking his own life to save those threatened with death by the Nazis. But he remains virtually unknown, largely because his job as Passport Control Officer in Berlin was a cover for his real role as MI6 Head of Sation in the German Capital. Foley was a British spy, a fact that made his efforts on behalf of the Jews even more dangerous. He had no diplomatic immunity and was liable to arrest at any time. Yet he not only went into the concentration camps to get Jews out, he hid them in his own home, helped them to get forged passports and ignored the rules to provide them with visas for Palestine. One Jewish aid worker estimated that he saved ?tens of thousands? of people from the Holocaust In this acclaimed book, number 1 bestselling author Michael Smith uncovers a remarkable man and tells his story with characteristic intelligence and humanity.
