Description

Gordon Brook-Shepherd (au). Since the end of World War II, more than forty high-level Soviet KGB & military intelligence officers have changed their allegiance & gone over to the West. Now, for the first time, the true stories of a dozen of these elite defectors are told in this major, authoritative work. These dramatic stories -- of secret meetings & desperate escapes, of wives, mistresses, & families abandoned, of intrigues within the Kremlin -- rival the most sensational spy fiction & offer an unsettling insider’s view of global calamities barely averted. “An engrossing book full of revelations & insights about the mind of the defector.” Photos.
