The terms "Gestapo" and "KGB" have taken on an ominous meaning in every European language. But while there are many books about espionage, until now very little has been written about the history of secret policing, which played such a grim role in the annals of totalitarian movements of the 20th century. Filled with fascinating portraits of the secret policemen who defined the state of their art--Sir Francis Walsingham, Lavrenti Beria, Heinrich Himmler, J. Edgar Hoover--The Unsleeping Eye takes us inside the dark corners of government.
