About this listen

'I am a British soldier,' I told my reflection. 'I am a British soldier and I'm saving lives. I'm saving lives. I'm a British soldier and I'm saving lives....'

Kevin Fulton was one of the British Army's most successful intelligence agents. Having been recruited to infiltrate the Provisional IRA at the height of the Troubles, he rose its ranks to an unprecedented level. Living and working undercover, he had no option other than to take part in heinous criminal activities, including the production of bombs which he knew would later kill. So highly was he valued by IRA leaders that he was promoted to serve in its infamous internal police - ironically, his job was now to root out and kill informers.

Until one day in 1994, when it all went wrong....

Fleeing Northern Ireland, Kevin was abandoned by the security services he had served so courageously and left to live as a fugitive. The life of a double agent requires constant vigilance, for danger is always just a heartbeat away. For a double agent within the highest ranks of the IRA, that danger was doubled. In this remarkable account, Kevin Fulton - former intelligence agent, ex-member of the IRA - tells a truth that is as uncomfortable as it is gripping.

Wonderful book. Disgraceful how Kevin was treated by the various security services in the United Kingdom. He was a patriot who worked undercover in the most violent of terror groups The IRA. It takes a special individual to work covertly for such a long time. He is a target now and a target then by the group he infiltrated and the British government. Great read. Congratulations to you Kevin Fulton and extremely brave man.

Another chapter in the NI story

I think the author was heavily constrained by what he could write. This is an interesting story that is another dimension to the Troubles. It’s not bad. It’s not fantastic. Narration is great.
