Description

|
|
|
When the Cold War ended, the spying that marked the era did not. The Pulitzer Prize–nominated author of Crazy and Circumstantial Evidence here gives us a gripping account of "Comrade J," who between 1995 and 2000 was Russia's key agent and spy handler for SVR intelligence (the successor to the KGB) in New York City, overseeing all covert operations against the United States and its allies in the United Nations. Comrade J also kept such secrets as the names of foreign diplomats spying for Russia. But there was one more secret he was keeping: for three years, Comrade J—Sergei Tretyakov—was working for U.S. intelligence, stealing secrets from the Russian Mission he was supposed to be serving. Pete Earley gives us a full and fascinating account of Tretyakov's activities, with plenty of "the spy-versus-spy frisson that espionage readers expect."—Booklist
