D-Day, 1944. The fate of the world hangs in the balance. The Nazis are waiting for the Allied invasion. But they are waiting in the wrong place. Why? Because of one man. "The Spy Who Saved the World" tells the incredible true story of Juan Pujol García, code name "Garbo." He was a chicken farmer from Spain who hated fascism so much he decided to become a spy. Rejected by the British, he created a fake network of sub-agents and fed the Germans lies so convincing they awarded him the Iron Cross. Eventually recruited by MI5, he orchestrated the greatest deception in military history: convincing Hitler that the Normandy landings were just a diversion. This book reads like a spy novel, but every word is true. It explores the psychology of the double agent—the nerve required to lie to the face of evil every single day. Without Garbo, the liberation of Europe might have failed. This is the story of the man who won the war with nothing but his imagination.
