AN EX-SPY LIFTS THE LID ON LIFE IN THE SECRET SERVICE
Andrew Kirsch didn’t grow up watching spy movies, or dreaming about being a real-life James Bond. He was hardly aware that Canada even had its own intelligence service – let alone knew what its officers did. But when a terrorist attack occurred near the office of his financial services job, all of a sudden fighting terrorism meant a lot more to him than the markets.
Within 18 months he had landed a job with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) – where he spent the next decade of his life.
In his book ‘I Was Never Here’, Kirsch (now an in-demand security consultant) spills the secrets of what life as an intelligence officer is really like, and dispels a few myths along the way.
