The thrilling, unputdownable story of Oleg Gordievsky, double agent, who revealed the KGB's inner secrets to British Intelligence, not for financial gain but from a high, moral imperative. His defection was an enormous coup for MI6. In an act of outstanding bravery he returned to Russia and underwent a harrowing ordeal before being rescued by the British in an epic escape. He was honoured by the Queen and now lives in a free country. What a story!
