Readers with a penchant for real-life cloak-and-dagger stories won't be disappointed with this memoir. Dan Pinck's World War II adventures behind Japanese lines in China resulted in vital information being passed along to the Allies and his up close-and-personal look at the world of covert military operations in that country will fascinate.
This WWII memoir is unusual in presenting the experiences of a member of the Office of Strategic Services during his years spent near Hong Kong. As a secret service agent, the basis of Pinck''s work involved developing contacts, which he accomplished in part by working closely with the local Chinese. The account details the relationships he developed, his activities, and life in China during the war.
