Kit Turner, former CIA operative & debut novelist: The Children of Outer Darkness

KIT TURNER worked for 25 years as an undercover CIA officer in East Asia, South Asia, and Europe, where he ran sensitive operations against top-tier objectives. After one risky deployment, he was awarded the Intelligence Star, a rare commendation for valor.

After retiring, Turner wrote “The CASSIA Spy Ring” (McFarland & Co., 2017), a nonfiction book about an ill-fated coterie of agents handled by the US Office of Strategic Services, the CIA’s forerunner. In 2022, CASSIA was featured in a two-part True Spies podcast narrated by Oscar-nominated actor Vanessa Kirby. The Children of Outer Darkness is his latest novel.
