Those who've read Agent Zigzag* will know that Faramus was Chapman's great friend in Jersey. They shared four years of imprisonment in Fort Romainville, Paris, but while Chapman was spying, Faramus was sent to Buchenwald and then to the even more infamous Mauthausen. Frequently at death's door, he survived the war and rebuilt his life. This book is the amazing tale of a survivor, whose varied adventures after the war included a year as Cary Grant's butler.
