Condizione: Fair. When Aline Griffith was born in Pearl River, New York, in 1923, one might have guessed from her exceptional beauty that a career as an actress or a model would be in her future. Few would have imagined that twenty-one years later she would find herself in Spain as a deep-cover OS agent, infiltrating the highest levels of Spanish society to uncover secret links to the Nazis; or that five years later still, she would marry a Spanish grandee and become one of the most watched, most admired, most fascinating women of international society. Under the code name Tiger, this remarkable woman probed the depths of the Nazi underground, risking her life--and her love--in a glittering world of high intrigue far more exciting than any fictionalized thriller. The Spy Wore Red is a harrowing first-hand account of the dangers and adventures she experienced as an undercover agent.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The Spy Wore Silk America's most captivating secret agent tells the true story of a Cold War mission into Morocco with William Casey. For glamor, adventure and intrigue, this is as good as it gets, wrote Cosmopolitan of The Spy Went Dancing, Aline Romanones' best selling successor to her memoir of OSS adventures during World War II, The Spy Wore Red. American beauty, Spanish socialite, devoted wife and mother, and spy, Aline, Countess of Romanones, wrote Time, lived a life of glamour and danger that Ingrid Bergman only played at in Notorius. Now in her third book, Aline unveils a true story of royalty and murder. It is 1971, and news reports of the near-assassination of Morocco's King Hassan II shock Aline. Just months before, she had received veiled warnings of such a plot, but few people had paid much attention. Now it is her job to make sure that the would be assassins do not succeed in their second attempt. With the help of onetime OSS colleague and future CIA chief William Casey, she searches for the conspirators, from the shadowy back streets of the Marrakesh souks to the lavish palaces of Casablanca and Rabat, from exotic desert banquets that turn into terrorist targets to elaborate shooting parties masking treachery and death. With the days running out, she must somehow untangle the complex web of motives and deceptions perpetrated by traitors, Soviet agents, illicit lovers, and uncertain allies, in order to ensure the king's survival-and increasingly, her own. Written with great style and her supreme talent for both suspense and the exotic details of high society, the spy Wore Silk is irresistible real life intrigue. My husband's role in The Spy Wore Silk fills me with pride. I wish Bill could have read this terrific, gripping story- not only because his patriotism and courage come through so clearly, but also because the book is so much fun. Sophia Casey, widow of William Casey, CIA Director, 1981-1987.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. THE SPY WORE RED, New York Times best seller list When Aline Griffith was born in Pearl River, New York, in 1923, one might have guessed from her exceptional beauty that a career as an actress or a model might be in her future. Few would have imagined that twenty-one years later, she would find herself in Spain as a deep-cover OSS agent, infiltrating the highest levels of Spanish society; or that five years later still, she would marry a Spanish grandee and become one of the most watched, most admired, most fascinating women of international society. This is the story of Aline, Countess of Romanones, a story of courage, beauty and success that will move readers with its amazing combination of autobiographical fact and narrative force. Reading The Spy Wore Red is like stepping into the script of Hitchcock's 1946 Cary Grant- Ingrid Bergman film Notorious. After confiding in 1943 to a young admirer her desire to serve the Allied cause, the fledgling model is recruited, sent to Washington. Trained as a spy and flown to Spain, Her mission: to uncover Madrid's high-society links to the German Nazi regime. As an undercover agent, Aline wends her way through lavish Madrid balls and dinners greeting the cr me de la cr me of Spanish society noting handshakes, wings and now among suspected - individuals. She and her colleagues live by code name, hers bingTiger and by their wits. When security is breached, Aline is endangered, and she narrowly escapes several attempts on her life. When she falls in love with one of her fellow agents, complications-and hazards- abound. The Spy Wore Red is full of amazing plot turns, and readers will have to remind themselves they are reading a memoir. It is also full of astounding charters and some startling revelations about them: Madrid high society is peppered with Nazi spies, and successful- is to expose them. My colleague Aline Romanones has written a Fascinating and exiting story evoking those marvelous days we served in the OSS in Europe. Her narrative reflects sensitively and accurately the clandestine intrigue and strategic maneuvers that marked the struggle between the secret services as well as the Allied and Axis powers and the atmosphere and high social live in wartime Spain. William J. Casey, OSS agent, 1942-45, CIA director, 1981-1987.…
