☆ The Sunday Read: ‘The Spy Who Called Me’

It was Nov. 3, 2017, and the target was José Manuel Villarejo Pérez, a former government spy. He was rumored to have had powerful friends and to have kept dirt on them all. He was, after all, a spy — and not just any spy, but one who had started his career in the secret police of the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco. Villarejo was handcuffed and taken to Madrid. And what happens when that man finds himself suddenly backed into a corner?

☆ El espía que me llamó

Dijo que tenía algunas cartas de amor, pero nada que equivaliera a un archivo de los secretos del rey. Villarejo siguió insistiendo, pero Zu SaynWittgenstein volvía una y otra vez a su frustración por su relación con el antiguo rey. Recordé que un editor bien relacionado en Madrid me había dicho una vez que por cada verdad que Villarejo decía, también decía cinco mentiras. Yo le había contado a Bautista que me reuniría con el espía, pero le di órdenes estrictas de que no se lo dijera a nadie más y las había cumplido. La agenda era más útil, ya que ofrecía una forma de cruzar referencias de muchas de las reuniones que Villarejo afirmaba haber tenido.

The wave of scandals that would engulf Spain began with a police raid on a wooded property outside Madrid. It was Nov. 3, 2017, and the target was José Manuel Villarejo Pérez, a former government spy. He was rumored to have had powerful friends and to have kept dirt on them all. They had come searching for evidence of money laundering, but it wasn’t Villarejo’s accounting books that gave them pause that day. He was, after all, a spy — and not just any spy, but one who had started his career in the secret police of the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco.
