24 featured booksJohn Bingham

John Michael Ward Bingham, 7th Baron Clanmorris of Newbrook, was an engineer, former MI5 spy, and an English novelist who published thrillers, detective novels, spy novels, and screen plays. - Wikipedia Following a spell as a journalist, Bingham was recruited into MI5 by Maxwell Knight. One of his younger colleagues was David Cornwell, who was inspired by Bingham’s success as an author of fiction to become a novelist himself, under the name John le Carré. Le Carré subsequently acknowledged that Bingham was a key inspiration for his most famous character, the spy George Smiley.
