Code Name Lucy: Spies Against Nazis

The greatest secret of the Second World War has remained a mystery for the last 80 years: a Jewish Communist, Sandor Rado, led a spy network that proved essential to the victory of Allied Forces.

Thanks to the recent declassification of secret archives, we are now able to step behind the scenes of this incredible story.
