Aleksandr Orlov has become one of the most loved figures in British culture and his catchphrase - Simples! - can be heard from the playground to the office. Written in his inimitable voice (as dictated to his sidekick Sergei), his autobiography will offer the same humour as his TV ads, giving us the full story of his ancestor's Journey of Courageousness from the Kalahari to Russia, the low-down on his life as entrepreneur and founder of comparethemeerkat.com and his love of grubs and cravats. 'My name is Aleksandr Orlov. I live and make work in Moscow. I have a success business. I have a mansion decorate with many fine things. I have a naturally majestic posture. But I would have none of these things if it were not for my family. This book is dedicated to them. I also wish to inspire next generation of young businesskats. I am hope that this book will show what can come of courage, hard work and a good fur-care regime. I am also hope that with royalties I will be able to re-marble roof on Orlov family mansion'

Masterspy Alexander Orlov was born in Russia in 1898. His guerrilla activities during and after the Great War caught the attention of Dzerzhinsky, founder of the Soviet secret police. Orlov proved a natural spy, playing a leading role in the creation of the UK's Cambridge network (Philby, Burgess, Maclean and Blunt) as well as the Berlin section of the Red Orchestra, a band of underground agents whose feats helped determine the outcome of the Second World War and its Cold War aftermath. Falling foul of Stalin, he fled to the USA via France and was regarded as a splendid catch by American intelligence officials who constantly debriefed him. Yet he never betrayed the 60-odd moles of whom he had personal knowledge - knowledge that kept KGB hit-men at bay. This is his story, a unique insight into the murky world of intelligence at the highest level.

"QUOTE" Tens of thousands of America's WWII, Korean Conflict, and Vietnam War military servicemen ended up as hostages secretly hijacked into the USSR. Today this regrettable saga is still one of America's most closely guarded secrets. As WWII ended Stalin captured all of Germany's eastern areas in which tens of thousands of captured American POWs were then being detained by Hitler's armed forces. Stalin secretly held them as hostages and denied any knowledge of them as the Cold War began. Their status unknown, Washington eventually declared them dead when in fact they were still alive in captivity. Thousands more were lost the same way when the Korean War ended: China and the USSR secretly exploited these hostages for intelligence purposes and then also disposed of them. Vietnam saw still more held back by Hanoi after that conflict ended, for the same reasons again. Today these abandoned sons, a few of whom may still be alive in captivity as you read this, are considered one of Washington's most closely guarded secrets. Now is time to expose this secret and end this unfortunate Cold War saga.
