Spycraft Essentials Piper Bayard Jay Holmes by Piper Bayard; Jay Holmes instant download after payment.

Welcome to Spycraft: Essentials. This book came about when Piper taught a class in Spycraft Essentials at the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers Colorado Gold Conference. So many of our readers who were not able to make it to the conference asked us for the information that we offered to write this reference book.
Let’s be clear up front. If you’re looking for a “tell-all” book of our nation’s deepest, darkest espionage secrets, this is not the book for you. We are not Snowden, Manning, or Assange, nor are we part of an Intelligence Community (“IC”) public relations project. While we may include an anecdote or two, what you will not find in this book is classified information, bragging about manhunts, details of current or recent field operations, or boasts about Holmes being the greatest spymaster the world has ever known. If you want that, you’ll need to find a former junior intelligence analyst with a book contract or a Hollywood producer who once had a drink with the Navy SEAL who was dating his sister. We are simply loyal Americans working on an independent civilian project in the interest of serving the public and, in particular, writers.
Also, in real life, no one is qualified to write a tell-all book about espionage anyway. Even the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (“CIA”) is not qualified to write that book. That’s because espionage, by its very nature, is compartmentalized so that no one person has the information to “tell all” about any agency or even any aspect of intelligence work. Great societal myths have been planted and have bloomed into accepted history because operatives who knew some thing assumed they knew every thing. Which leads us to our first Spycraft Essential . . .
