Willie Carlin
In March 1985, as he climbed the six steps of Margaret Thatcher's prime-ministerial jet on the runway of RAF Aldergrove, little did Willie Carlin know the role Freddie Scappaticci played in saving his life. So began the dramatic extraction of Margaret Thatcher's key undercover agent in Sinn Féin. For 11 years, Willie Carlin worked alongside IRA commander Martin McGuinness in the republican movement's political wing in Derry. He was MI5's man at McGuinness' side and gave the British State unprecedented insight into the IRA leader's strategic thinking. When Carlin's cover was blown in 1985, Thatcher authorized the use of her jet to whisk him to safety. Incredibly, it was another British spy inside the IRA's secretive counter-intelligence unit, the 'nuttin' squad', who saved Carlin's life. This is his story.

Incredible story, full of fascinating detail and heart wrenching terror, regarding the troubles in NI.
As someone with little knowledge of the politics going on across the Irish Sea, I found the deep explanations helpful and necessary to follow the event in the book.
One noticeable absence, is the lack of details regarding Mary, and the children, throughout his time in Derry, as an informant. I understand the book is specifically about his spying and infiltration of Sinn Fein, but it’s curious to me that the affect of his high risk lifestyle, and being known locally to be working within the movement, and the impact this must’ve had in his home life, isn’t shared at all during the bulk of the story.
Fascinating
