Summary of ben macintyre's operation mincemeat

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 1943, José Antonio Rey María was a fish spotter for the fishermen of Punta Umbria, Spain. He saw a body floating in the water, and when he rowed closer, he realized it was a man. He brought the body ashore and none of the other fishermen wanted to touch it. #2 The British Secret Service had created a man from nothing in a basement room beneath the Admiralty building in Whitehall. The man was tall and thin, with thick spectacles and an elaborate air-force mustache. #3 The defining feature of this spy was his falsity. He was a pure figment of imagination, a weapon in a war far removed from the traditional battle of bombs and bullets.
