An intriguing memoir that journeys into the complex and dangerous world of covert statecraft and espionage describes growing up as the son of a high-ranking American spymaster, his refusal to take a job with the CIA in order to pursue a life in business, and his job as an agent for Muhammad Ali, a position that drew him back into the family business.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Larry J. Kolb was born in Virginia but grew up all over the world. The son of a senior U.S. Intelligence official, he rejected his father's profession but was then drawn back into it. Prior to entering the covert world, he acted as agent for several professional athletes, including Muhammad Ali. Once he was recruited by C.I.A. cofounder Miles Copeland, Kolb was involved in covert intrigues in Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Philippines, Nicaragua, Pakistan, and India. Now 47, Kolb lives in an undisclosed location.
