About this listen

'I am a British soldier,' I told my reflection. 'I am a British soldier and I'm saving lives. I'm saving lives. I'm a British soldier and I'm saving lives....'

Kevin Fulton was one of the British Army's most successful intelligence agents. Having been recruited to infiltrate the Provisional IRA at the height of the Troubles, he rose its ranks to an unprecedented level. Living and working undercover, he had no option other than to take part in heinous criminal activities, including the production of bombs which he knew would later kill. So highly was he valued by IRA leaders that he was promoted to serve in its infamous internal police - ironically, his job was now to root out and kill informers.

Until one day in 1994, when it all went wrong....

Fleeing Northern Ireland, Kevin was abandoned by the security services he had served so courageously and left to live as a fugitive. The life of a double agent requires constant vigilance, for danger is always just a heartbeat away. For a double agent within the highest ranks of the IRA, that danger was doubled. In this remarkable account, Kevin Fulton - former intelligence agent, ex-member of the IRA - tells a truth that is as uncomfortable as it is gripping.

I loved the true story of Fulton the reader told it so well ,

As much as him betraying Ireland disgusted me the snake definitely deserves to be paid out by his countries enemy (the brits)

Don’t like that terrorists who are loyalists like stone are referred to simply as loyalist Micheal stone whereas nationalists like the Gibraltar thee are called terrorists , I guess that’s just the typical brits for you eh

Excellently read and very exciting book

You can tell this has been written by a ghost writer, it’s very well written. The book is very engaging and gives an insight into the IRA. Not Sure I don’t understand the title Double Agent as he wasn’t one, he might have been an agent but a double?
I am shocked by his final chapters when he states the the British Security Services tried to get him killed and left him on his own. This is different from what I have read about others who were taken out when
Compromised. It doesn’t matter if true or not the book is engaging and the person performing does it well
