Ted Allbeury
Theodore Edward le Bouthillier Allbeury (born Stockport, 24 October 1917 - died Tunbridge Wells, 4 December 2005) was a British author of espionage fiction. He served as an intelligence officer in the Special Operations Executive between 1940 and 1947, reaching the rank of lieutenant colonel. He is believed to be the only British secret agent who parachuted into Nazi Germany during the war, and he remained there until the Allied armies arrived. During the Cold War he was captured and tortured when running agents across the border between East and West Germany. After running his own advertising agency, he became the managing director of the seafort-based pirate radio station Radio 390 in 1964, later moving to the ship-based Radio 355 (see under Swinging Radio England for details) until its closure in August 1967.〔http://www.theguardian.com/news/2006/jan/03/guardianobituaries.booksobituaries〕
His first novel, ''A Choice of Enemies'', was published in 1972. Allbeury went on to publish over 40 novels, under his own name as well as Patrick Kelly and Richard Butler.
