Description
During World War II, there was a rumour that German spies were landing by parachute in Britain dressed as nuns. Conradin Muller is an unusual spy, recruited in Hamburg in June 1943 against his will and sent on his first and only mission later that year. He fails to send a single report to Germany, and when the war ends in May 1945, he falls to his knees and weeps with relief. From a deeply reluctant German spy who is drawn to an East Anglian nunnery as his only means of escape, to the strange story of one of the Cambridge spy ring’s adventures with a Russian dwarf, these stories by Alexander McCall Smith explore the world of espionage with invention and intrigue.
