Operation Heartbreak follows Willie s life, through youthful idealism, love affairs and disappointed hopes, until, finally, he gets the chance to make a difference. Duff Cooper s bittersweet novel, inspired by the real events of Operation Mincemeat, is a poignant tale of dreams of glory, and what it means to be true. Supremely moving ... Its ending is as unexpected as it is affecting Wall Street Journal
