The Monitor's book critics give thumbs up to these 10 new July titles.
Bestselling author Ben MacIntyre tells the stranger-than-fiction true story of Kim Philby, the Cold War master spy who was spying for the enemy even as he headed up British counterintelligence. When Philby betrayed his country, he also betrayed his friends, fellow MI6 officer Nicholas Elliot and CIA operative James Jesus Angleton, and MacIntyre's focus on the human dimensions of this tragedy makes his book a pageturner. You can see the Monitor's full review of "A Spy Among Friends" here.
