"A copy of the manuscript of this book was stolen by a senior MI5 officer in an attempt to stop its being published. On October 12, 1982, the High Court of Justice of Great British issued an injunction against the publication of this book or any part of it. As in the cases of Soviet moles high up in British government - Burgess, Maclean, Philby, Blunt - the barn door was closed too late. The American publisher had already hand-carried a copy of the manuscript from London to New York a month earlier."--Book Flap.
