Interesting.In the days before IMDB and Wiki an author was just an author for example Agatha Christie.
When you relook at most of the big names of British literature over the last 100 or so years( MI5 and MI6 were established around 1910) they don’t seem to be more than an arms length away from a career in the foreign service of GB.
Whether undercover as a foreign correspondent or as in the case of Christie visiting the Middle East every year with her archaeologist husband.
Forsyth, Fleming, Archer even JK Rowling who wasn’t in some way a spook?
