Betrayal at Venlo Summary

Betrayal at Venlo: Secret Story of Appeasement and Treachery, 1937-45 by Leo Kessler

This book tells the story of two World War II British intelligence agents, Best and Stevens, who found themselves apparently acting as intermediaries between the British Government and German generals plotting to kill Hitler. The true story behind the kidnapping of the two intelligence officers at Venlo in Holland is revealed, as is the string of betrayal, cover-ups, pay-offs and treacheries that were set in motion by the initial betrayal at Venlo. The book tells of the victims caught up in this treachery. The author discloses the apparently pro-Nazi tendencies of the Duke of Windsor and the terrible revenge the British Intelligence Service took on Best and Stevens' German kidnappers. This, he suggests, is one of the reasons why the government files on what happened on that road outside the Dutch border city of Venlo over 50 years ago remains closed until the year 2015.
