We become privy to their thoughts as they inch towards fulfilling their mission.  \nFeaturing stories from different eras, the book begins with a lesserknown tale from the master of all epics—Mahabharata. Guru Brihaspati’s son Kacha, the spy of the gods, was sent by Lord Indra to learn mritsanjeevani vidya from Guru Shukracharya, a knowledge which would make the gods immortal. While he achieved his mission, it came with a heavy price.  \nNext is Jeev Siddhi, Chanakya’s spy. He assisted his guru Chanakya in saving Chandragupta Maurya’s life and expand his kingdom by strategically defeating King Nanda’s minister, Rakshasa.  \nThe ","cbCaicBMOI9bYsan","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicBMOI9bYsan","pdf",2452290,132,"English","# Prologue\n## Kacha\n## The Spy of the Gods\n## Jeev Siddhi\n## Chanakya's Spy\n## Chand Bardai\n## The Poet Spy\n## Bahirji Naik\n## Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's Chief Intelligence Officer\n## Sharan Kaur\n## The Warrior Spy\n## Aziz-Un-Nisa\n## The Courtesan Spy\n## Durga Bhabhi\n## The Revolutionary Spy\n## Noor Inayat Khan\n## The Unlikely Spy\n## Saraswati Rajamani\n## Netaji's Spy\n## Rameshwar N.
