The Deniable AgentUndercover in Afghanistan by Berry Colin

The Deniable AgentUndercover in Afghanistan by Berry Colin

As far as Colin Berry's family were concerned, he'd gone to Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban to market low-cost housing. But in fact, Berry, a former soldier, had been recruited by British intelligence to secretly buy back weapons systems that had been delivered to the Mujahideen during their struggle against the Soviets. It was a gruelling and dangerous mission during which he saw first-hand the ravaging effects of decades of warfare on a country and its people. It ended in a hotel-room shoot-out that left two Afghans dead and Berry himself seriously wounded. In The Deniable Agent, Colin Berry gives a riveting insight into the covert world of intelligence. He also finally reveals the truth about what happened in the Intercontinental Hotel that night and how he spent nearly a year in a stinking Afghan jail.

"A truly terrifying tale " News of the World "Vivid and uncomfortable reading (Critic's Choice)" Daily Mail "An engaging, interesting and often brutal tale of betrayal and violence that paints a stark picture of what has proved to be an unconquerable country" Ice "An interesting read, written with enough pace to be enthralling (*****)" Stuff

Colin Berry spent several years in the British Army before leaving to follow a civilian career. He now works as a project manager for a major civil engineering company and lives with his family in Essex.
