The Billion Dollar Spy : A True Story of Cold War Espionage and Betrayal
ISBN: 9781785781971
Publication Date: 1 June 2017

'One of the best spy stories to come out of the Cold War and all the more riveting for being true.' - Washington Post

January, 1977. While the chief of the CIA's Moscow station fills his gas tank, a stranger drops a note into the car. In the years that followed, that stranger, Adolf Tolkachev, became one of the West's most valuable spies. At enormous risk Tolkachev and his handlers conducted clandestine meetings across Moscow, using spy cameras, props, and private codes to elude the KGB in its own backyard; until a shocking betrayal put them all at risk. Drawing on previously classified CIA documents and interviews with first-hand participants, The Billion Dollar Spy is a brilliant feat of reporting and a riveting true story from the final years of the Cold War.

      twilightvanillagalaxies from Houston, United States

    I have had my eye on one of these for a long time but just out of my reach due to high price in stores. The group discount on groupspree is so much better!
