I liked By Way of Deception, by a former Mossad case officer. It was overall critical of the Mossad becoming self-serving (according to the author), but the methods it exposed were genius, especially the training. The Israeli government said it was a fraud, then tried to stop its publication due to state secrets being portrayed.
"By Way of Deception" is a lie not from the first word of the first page, but from the freaking cover. It's first lie is the motto of the Mossad. Victor Ostrovsky purposely mistranslated, the Mossad's motto , which is Proverbs 24:6 "for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory."

Yes, governments usually try to get court injunctions stopping publication of national security secrets in a book when the book contains no factual information.
