REAL FAKES: THE TRUE STORY OF THE
FAKE SPY WHO SAVED D-DAY
by David Dubczak
Through lies, trickery, and a wild imagination, a Spanish chicken farmer becomes World War II’s most influential spy and the only person awarded a medal by both sides of the war. When the British don’t want his help, Juan Pujol Garcia invents his character, earns the enemy’s trust, and creates an entire spy network purely from imagination. With his eccentric wife Araceli, he makes himself indispensable to the confused British. When his ruse grows, they give him a mission: make the enemy believe the invasion of Normandy will actually be in Pas de Calais. The team knows Pujol’s imagination is their greatest weapon. But, no one can escape sacrificing for the war – not even Pujol and Araceli.
