La espía que vestía de rojo par Condesa de Romanones Aline Griffith
84-1
Born in New York in 1923, Aline Griffith worked for the OSS in Spain during World War II deep undercover as an American agent placed in upper class Spanish society. Her story is confirmed by William J. Casey, OSS agent 1942-45 and CIA director 1981-1987.
Twenty one year old Aline Griffith finds herself in Spain as a deep-cover OSS agent, infiltrating the highest levels of Spanish society; or that five years later still, she would marry a Spanish grandee, and become one of the most fascinating women of international history. A memoir
A WWII spy thriller, billed as a memoir of a socialite who played a silent but instrumental role in the Allied victory.
