Season one uncovers the story of The Ministry of Secrets, one of the great unsolved mysteries of the Cold War. At its heart is a missing person — a wartime hero and international celebrity. But that’s just the starting point. It involves the royal family, MI6, the CIA and the KGB...

"...the jolliest listen...This story – not one that would usually grip me, I have to say – quickly expands into a wider subject...Milton’s charming presentation and the excellent soundscaping by Peregrine Andrews are more than enough to keep you interested. Plus, not to reveal too much, the story really does go quite wildly rogue and comes right up to the present day. Once you hear that Crabb’s ex-wife was sure he’d gone to the Soviet Union, you’re hooked."
