'The Daisy Spy Ring' is a definitive inside look at the most sensational and successful espionage operation conducted by South Africa's intelligence services. In a daring and dangerous secret intelligence operation conducted from South Africa in multiple European countries, two intelligence agents and their sub-agents managed to infiltrate and thoroughly disrupt the activities of the South African Communist Party in Africa. In this original and unique story, Henning van Aswegen, a former lecturer at South Africa's National Intelligence Academy, and the historian Peter M.
Swanepoel provide an in-depth analytical account of South Africa's intelligence services and espionage operations. Operatives in the Daisy Spy Ring reported on the fierce competition between Moscow and Liberal, socio-democratic Western governments to "capture the revolution" in South Africa in the 1970s and 1980s. It is a story that has remained secret for forty years and has never before been told.
Until now.
