It's Like Finding a Winning Ticker

My across the board bet on the Derby yesterday was a losing ticket, but since the only way I am keeping track of all the spy books I've read this year is by saving the receipt tapes I get from the library, I found another loose one this morning when trying to tidy up the hassock that has been my "desk and storage cabinet" over the last six weeks as I recuperate in the recliner from hip replacement surgery.

So after the above excuse, here are two more spy books for my year end thesis on spycraft:

Best of Enemies:  The Last Great Spy Story of the Cold War by Gus Russo and Eric Dezenhall
