Until now, TRIPLEX has been considered too secret a source ever to be mentioned outside the most senior levels of security and intelligence services, and none of the official histories of British Intelligence in the Second World War contain even a single reference to it. More sensitive than ULTRA, TRIPLEX was the codename for a joint M15/SIS covert operation to gain access to the diplomatic bags of neutral embassies in London and photograph their highly secretive contents. The M15 officer selected to supervise the clandestine operation was Anthony Blunt, who also took copies for his Soviet contacts.
Gathered together by Oleg Tsarev and Nigel West, Triplex provides an unprecedented glimpse into the most highly classified activities of MI5 and SIS.

Some of the most amazing documents ever declassified by the KGB's archives - unseen by anybody in the West since they were sent to Moscow by Kim Philby, Anthony Blunt and John Cairncross.
