Missing Palm Tree

Stories from America's Clandestine Service

Book Details

The Agent served in secret to help protect America

These stories were written as a tribute to a man who spent 13 years as a clandestine agent for the Central Intelligence Agency. The stories illustrate vividly the physical and mental abilities which a clandestine agent must possess. Though the actions of an agent are far removed from what most people could consider being capable of, the agent will have the will to accomplish what he was asked to do. He is also by necessity a linguist with degrees in foreign languages. His travel requirements are often enormous simply because of the necessary subterfuge to carry out his assignments.
