137 – Operation Lena and Hitler’s Plots to Blow up Britain

The common narrative of the war often completely overlooks Germany’s attempts to run spies in Britain. In actual fact, for more or less the whole of the war the German secret service, the Abwehr, continued sending agents to Britain.

In this episode I’m joined by Bernard O’Connor, author of Operation Lena and Hitler’s Plots to Blow up Britain to discuss German espionage activities.
