Trio Reveals True Stories of Major Covert Operator
LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) January 07, 2016 -- Hoping to educate the public, provide transparency and bring honor to those who served in harm’s way at government posts, three collaborating authors release the first book in a trilogy, “Code Name: Papa—My Extraordinary Life While Hiding in Plain Sight” (published by Archway Publishing). This biography and political thriller is the true story of John Murray (“Papa”) as told to Sharon Murray with Abby Jones. Due to John’s secretive work, all are using pseudonyms.
The book shows that being a covert agent for a large international group is hard work, not the carefree life of fictional spy and covert characters. From the start, the book lists all the states and countries readers will visit in 43 chapters that took place throughout more than 40 years – from the 1960s to 2000s. During that time, Papa almost died three times, married four times and buried numerous covert friends. He also dealt with a major UFO scare in the U.K., a secretive killing of eight “bad guys” in the conference room of a major Vegas hotel, and helped prevent a small country coup.
