Author Bio: Ted Allbeury
Ted Allbeury (1917–2005) was an intelligence officer with Great Britain’s Special Operations Executive during World War II; afterward, he ran agents between East and West Germany. Allbeury’s firsthand Cold War experiences enliven his espionage novels. The movie Blue Ice with Michael Caine was based on his characters, and his book No Place to Hide was adapted as Hostage starring Sam Neill. BBC Radio 4 has adapted his novels The Other Side of Silence, Pay Any Price, No Place to Hide, The Lonely Margins, and Deep Purple for radio broadcast. Allbeury is the author of over 40 books—many under the pen name of Patrick Kelly and Richard Butler. Despite being written decades ago, his bestselling book The Twentieth Day of January has received major media attention since it deals with many of the controversies surrounding the 2016 election.
