Book Review of Gray Day: My Undercover Mission to Expose America's First Cyber Spy

Gray Day: My Undercover Mission to Expose America's First Cyber Spy
debs avatar reviewed on + 649 more book reviews


It's very scary to think that there are such formidable spies in the U.S., people entrusted with our very lives and endangering us every day. For their own greed. But yes, it is a definite fact. This book was written by the ultimate FBI spy catcher himself. What he did, how he did it, a movie was even made in his honor (Breach, starring Ryan Phillipe and Chris Cooper). The best parts of this book are the many pages detailing the time he spent with the spy himself, ingratiating himself in his good graces, setting him up for the capture. It can get a little bit long winded and bogged down when talking about the history of spies, past experiences, etc., but some people might be really into that. I could easily skip over those parts if they seemed too much.
An important story to know, in my humble opinion.
