Any biographies on Christopher Marlowe give lots of info about
Walsingham's spy operations. There is a very recent Marlowe work, whose
title I forget, which, while suspect with respect to Marlowe, gives all
the sordid details about Elizabethan spying.
I have the book at home, and will look up title and author for you. You

English Renaissance, Stanford, Stanford U.P., 1993.I hope they may be
