check out the review called Dr Zigzag, in recent London Review of
Books, 26 July issue I think:
bio of con artist Eddie Chapman
(turned) German agent instructed to report on where V-1's were hitting
after parachuting back into Britain, able to warn authorities of
imminent V-2 attacks
anedcote about how Home Affairs should mislead the Germans about where
the V-1 were landing and how that would lead to the more poorer parts
of London to be eventually hit (see Gwenhidy's discussion of this in
part 1 of GR I think)
