'Beautifully written and gripping'. Sunday MirrorWhen Mata Hari arrived in Paris she was penniless. Soon she was feted as the most elegant woman in the city. A dancer who shocked and delighted audiences, as a confidante and courtesan she bewitched the era’s richest and most powerful men. But as paranoia consumed a country at war, Mata Hari’s lifestyle brought her under suspicion. In 1917 she was arrested in her hotel room on the Champs Elysees and accused of espionage. Told in Mata Hari's voice through her final letter, The Spy is the unforgettable story of a woman who dared to break the conventions of her time, and paid the price.

I'm really satisfied with this order, though I do have to say one corner of the cover was creased despite the bubble wrap. That wasn't much of a problem, however, because the book is otherwise in great condition. I'm just really happy I own a copy now.
The title is hooking to say the least not to mention the anticipation I felt when I opened the book.
this is an amazing book that allows for further research. Not only am I learning more about South Africa's very own elite group but also politics, business, finance, fraud, monopoly. these are all the things that make this book amazing. I love the page featuring the names and pictures of supposed members of the mafia or men who play a role. I love the south african histroy in the book. I love the notes at the back of the book. I love the index and abbreviations that were explained making it easy to follow along.
