The Eagle's eye

A recently retired chief of the U.S. Secret Service recounts an organized campaign of covert operations carried out by agents acting for Imperial Germany on American soil. The narrative details plots such as attempted sabotage of the Atlantic Fleet, clandestine munitions attacks, arson at an industrial town, efforts to foment labor unrest, and schemes against transportation routes and canals. It exposes coded embassy communications, undercover operatives, and compiled portfolios of incriminating documents that reveal an espionage network. The account blends investigative reportage with novelized reconstruction to outline methods, key conspiracies, and the counterintelligence responses mounted to thwart them.
