Spies and Lies: How China's Greatest Covert Operations Fooled the World
by Alex Joske
Spies and Lies is a recent (October 2022) and readable account of Chinese espionage activities by Alex Joske, an Australian analyst who knows China well and has scoured Chinese language sources to put this story together. It’s a lot about how some apparently Western-friendly, reformist figures turn out to have been agents of the Ministry for State Security, spreading the influence of China’s ruling party around the world.
