The Gods Smile On The Bastards — Anna Schlegel

Once you are able to see the intelligence's handwriting, you may see the words of failure inscribed in the same handwriting, telling of a failure they are yet unaware of. In looking at that other man from afar, he found it hard to shake off the feeling of observing his own self from the outside. That other man resembled him way too much. The man was better than him, more experienced, and he looked more convincing, and rather like a slime ball. Everyone could see it. The man succeeded in making everyone believe he was truly him, in person. And the man could prove it. What could eventually happen if the man slipped away? Then the only guy remaining would be him. And he would be constrained to be more like his former self. For all those long years, he had plain forgotten what kind of a person he was, underneath. He would have to recollect and become somewhat more life-like. He would hardly be able to make it, really, unless he was dead. But then, would that be a preferable option; something they truly wanted? Why do intelligence people become defectors? There may be two answers. One is obvious. They become defectors due to a landmark case against some other turncoat. Every agent, while keeping a close watch on the case, usually dissected the defendant's mistakes so he thought he would never do anything similar, convinced that he could be smarter, employing a lot more caution… The second answer is something else. People come to be turncoats long before they start working for the spy directorate. So, read it all: this is worth knowing. This is the answer from a legend. Listen to it, give it a touch, and you'll be blessed with the smile of God.

ABOUT THE SLEEPER SERIRS What do the defectors really want? Why do these people betray their country and friends? Why are some of those defectors lucky, while some others are not? Why don't they ever have any regrets? What are their true motives? Is it about money? No. Do they do it for fear? No. Do they sometimes wish to build their careers in this alternative way? No. Are they seeking fame? No. Have they been brainwashed? No. Can they be naive idealists? No. Whatever answers you may think of, all of them would be probably wrong. Are they betrayers? Yes, they are. Are they doing the right thing? Yes, they are. Do they find in this treachery what they must have been looking for? They sometimes do. How can they live with this? They are perfectly in tune with their own selves. What are their goals? Now you will have the answer. It is worth knowing. This answer will surely change the way you see the world. This will be the answer from the legend.

Each of the secret services has its own handwriting, faint and hardly perceptible. This handwriting is their custom. It does not change for years, and one can read it through. This handwriting can lead an agent to failure. This is what these books are written about, if anything. These books also tell of the legend that keeps recruiting people across time and distance; of something that is stronger than life. This legend is an eternal truth, refilled with the living blood of every new recruiter who would choose the way of the legend. These books are about the legendary Kim Philby. These books contain neither facts of Kim Philby's life nor any historical events. This is all about the modern-day, and is pure fiction. I'm giving an answer to the question: Why should the legend of Philby be everlasting? Why is this legend of Philby such a deadly, pulling force? How do the people survive under the wing of his legend? There is little said about it, yet this is the main point.
