This gripping narrative brings to life dramatic true events in America from the 1930s through the McCarthy era-taking us from Russian Jewish immigrant Harry Gold's recruitment by the Soviets, to his training in tradecraft, to his role in Julius Rosenberg's and Klaus Fuchs's atomic espionage at Los Alamos.
The result is a novel with the psychological depth of The Third Man, the taut pacing of All the President's Men, and the moral poignancy of I Married a Communist.
