I'VE WRITTEN A BOOK! It's the true story of a 50-year murder mystery. A tale of betrayal and revenge at the height of the Cold War. It's also an unofficial history of journalists and spies and the blurred lines between the two professions. 'Murder in Cairo' is out now👇🏻 amazon.co.uk/Murder-Cairo...
