Title: The dictionary of espionage and intelligence
Description: "From Bob Burton - a former member of both the civilian and military intelligence communities and America's most feared bounty hunter - comes the complete lexicon of over eight hundred terms and meanings used in international and covert espionage. Top Secret includes the most up-to-date terminology of special operations from A to Z, including: Breaktime: The time it takes to break down he resistance level of a subject in an interrogation of a brutal nature - usually 5-7 hours; Hero Project: Projects, operations, or extractions considered too dangerous, with only the most skilled personnel able to pull it off; Cake or Death: An unspoken but soon-realized ultimatum that a prisoner of the spook war understands as his personal fate - cooperate or die. Compiled by a man who knows covert action and clandestine warfare from the inside out, Top Secret is a perfect compendium if the secret language spoken by those who fight the silent war. "--
