Zusammenfassung:"This book provides new insights into the development of the important Hagelin cryptomachine company, sheds light on the transfer of the Finnish intelligence service to Sweden in 1944 and shows how MI5 had sources at work in the Swedish legation in London. There is also anecdotal evidence to suggest that Allied security surrounding OVERLORD may have in fact been breached." "Among the smaller nations of Europe, perhaps Sweden came closest to Bletchley Park in the wartime success of its code-breaking activities. McKay and Beckman provide an authoritative account of Swedish work in this important field of secret intelligence."--BOOK JACKET.
