Written by Airey Neave, one of the first British officers to escape from Colditz Castle and a key organiser within M.I.9 — Britain's clandestine escape and evasion department — the account carries the rare authority of a true insider. With precision and quiet intensity, Neave details the intricate networks of courageous civilians, resistance fighters, and intelligence operatives who risked everything to guide evaders across treacherous borders and back to Allied lines. The narrative uncovers the human cost of these operations, paying tribute to the unsung heroes — many of them women — whose bravery sustained the escape lines against the constant threat of Gestapo infiltration and betrayal. At once a personal memoir and a definitive historical record, Saturday at M.I.9 stands as an essential document of wartime courage, sacrifice, and ingenuity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887880909019,"sku":"2026100006790-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/781d80c6-015e-4717-8dd1-fcdf7ec28913.png?v=1781747644","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006790-secondhand-saturday-at-m-i-9-a-history-of-underground-escape-lines-in-north-west-europe-in-1940-5-by-a-leading-organiser-at-m-i-9","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
