SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE - NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES

Near the end of World War II, two British naval officers came up with a brilliant and slightly mad scheme to mislead the Nazi armies about where the Allies would attack southern europe. To carry out the plan, they would have to rely on the most unlikely of secret agents: a dead man.

Ben Macintyre's dazzling, critically acclaimed bestseller chronicles the extraordinary story of what happened after British officials planted this dead body--outfitted in a British military uniform with a briefcase containing false intelligence documents--in Nazi territory, and how this secret mission fooled Hitler into changing military positioning, paving the way for the Allies to overtake the Nazis.

Authentic cry baby tears
Size: 1 Pound
I LOVE this candy and eat waaaay more than I should. My only minor gripe is that both times I've ordered from this company the bad has been slightly underweight- less than half an ounce off so not a huge deal, but for almost $13 a point I would rather it be spot on. It is the actual candy though and not a knock off so I am happy about that at least.

Pretty good
Size: 1 Pound
So we're on the outside, not terribly sweet on the inside. Not the most sour candy I've ever had but very good and I really love sour things. It's fun watching people who don't like sour things eat them.

Love it
Format: Hardcover
Love. Love. Love. I love this book. Every single word in this book is so precious to me. If Gesenius was like a strict father, this one is like a mother who so kindly elaborates on many difficult notions. Thanks a lot for such a great book ❤️ (Even if it were $1000, I would buy it! The bibliography is so kindly sorted out by a subcategory~♡)
