Many describe Athens as the peaceful city of great ancient monuments, elegant neoclassical buildings and large avenues with sparse motor traffic; the capital of a neutral country during the Great War. Nonetheless, the city was a secret battlefield. British and French spymasters, gentlemen officers of colonial wars yet utterly amateurs and Prussian hard-trained infantry officers were unable to understand the game of espionage and waged their war in order to turn Greece to their own side. In parallel, the Anglophile Prime Minister Eleutherios Venizelos aimed for the country to join the Entente against the Central Powers. In contrast, King Constantine demanded that Greece remain neutral, to the strategic advantage of Kaiser Wilhelm II, whose sister, Sofia, Constantine had married. Political philosopher Thomas Hobbes wrote of 'the war all against all'. Indeed, in Athens and Salonica espionage and intrigue was the game of all against all; from watchful street informers, cunning ambassadors, reckless spymasters, Machiavellian politicians, adventure-seeking arms dealers, to prime ministers and members of the royal family. No doubt, the history and characters of the secret war for Greece surpasses fiction.

'The Empire is the Master [in the Far East] and they are the guests,' Yamagata Aritomo, the chief imperial strategist in Tokyo, once remarked.From the early 1900s, Imperial Japan aimed for hegemony in the Far East. During this time, resourceful and independent-minded Japanese spymasters focused on acquiring intelligence of advanced naval and aviation technology.In London, the War Office and the Foreign Office opted for an alliance treaty with Japan. Nonetheless strategists soon realised that Tokyo was antagonizing Britain in the Far East. The British Empire was deemed weak and overextended. Officials believed that avoiding confrontation with Japan was the only choice, and so Britain condoned Japanese aggression in China. Indeed, pro-Japanese bias influenced official policy at the highest levels.Only the spymasters of the Secret Intelligence Service, the Admiralty and the Security Service, recruiting spies across the Far East, were able to reveal Japan's hostile intent towards the British Empire. In Empires of Spymasters, Panagiotis Dimitrakis tells us how they did it.

Vienna, located at the heart of Europe was the city of choice for American, British, German and Russian spymasters in their merciless trade, to plot against one another and steal secrets. For the first time a book is dedicated to the secret stories of spymasters, their tradecraft and secret sources from the end of the World War I, the Interwar with the rise of Nazis to the Second World War and the Cold War.The rich of culture and music Vienna hid a labyrinth of spies and dissidents in the interwar period, and a powerful Gestapo presence during the war meant that the Office of Strategic Services and British intelligence could not deploy operatives in Austria in general.In post war, a few young American and British intelligence officers pitted their wits against hundreds of seasoned Russian operatives of the NKVD and their thousands of informers. and the secret truth was that both Russian and Allied intelligence services employed members of the Nazi intelligence services just upon the defeat of Germany in 1945 and the occupation of Austria.
