The Diamond Smugglers

In "The Diamond Smugglers," narrated by Barnaby Edwards, Ian Fleming steps away from his fictional James Bond adventures to tell the gripping true story of an international crime ring's downfall. Set against the backdrop of the Cold War in 1957, Fleming collaborates with ex-MI5 agent "John Blaize" to detail the infiltration of a notorious diamond smuggling network that funneled stolen gems to Communist nations. With the aid of a private army led by British spymaster Sir Percy Sillitoe, this account chronicles a remarkable spy operation and the tense battle against one of the world's most elusive criminal enterprises.
