Dan Gordon, from the Sleep With One Eye Open intelligence thriller series by Haggai Carmon operates as a lone wolf. He gave up a promising career with the Mossad when one blown cover relegated him to a desk job for life. Now based in the U.S., he works for the Justice Department, gathering intelligence, recovering assets and following elusive trails around the world. His assignments often overlap with matters of national security, so he’s no stranger to collaborating with the CIA…and using his Mossad training to get out of very sticky, often deadly situations.
From SleepWithOneEyeOpen, comes the Dan Gordon Spy Club. Go ahead. Snoop around. We promise no one’s watching…
LSD:
an acronym for d-lysergic acid diethylanide, a hallucinatory drug discovered in 1943 by Dr. Albert Hofmann, a researcher at Switzerland's Sandoz corporation, a pharmaceutical manufacturer. Subsequently monopolized by the CIA for its MKULTRA project that developed methods for secretly controlling people. Still used today by numerous intelligence agencies and security services for the following functions 1. disturbance of memory 2. discrediting by aberrant behavior 3. eliciting of information 4. creation of dependence 5. suggestibility. At the CIA's request, in 1954 Eli Lilly & Company developed a method for manufacturing LSD from publicly available chemicals. The CIA's bungling of MKULTRA allowed the drug to escape from the lab, where the CIA lost control of it. LSD subsequently ruined two generations of young Americans. No CIA officer or contractor was ever reprimanded or punished.
