    About this audiobook

    Oleg Gordievsky was the highest ranking KGB officer ever to work for Britain. For eleven years, he acted as a secret agent, reporting to the British Secret Intelligence Service while continuing to work as a KGB officer. He gave such a clear insight into the mind and methods of the KGB and the whole system of Soviet Government that he has been credited with doing more than any other individual in the West to accelerate the collapse of Communism. Here, for the first time meticulously planned escape from Russia is described. Gordievsky's autobiography gives a fascinating account of life as a secret agent. It also paints the most graphic picture yet of the paranoia and incompetence, intrigues and sheer nastiness of the all-encompassing and ridiculous KGB.

      I first saw Karolina outside the Sumesa on the corner of Avenidas Oaxaca and Álvaro Obregón. She was smoking a stubby cigarette, a sled-like backpack hitched to her shoulders. I stopped short, felt my heart lurch. Could it be? Karolina was my brother

      I look through the sheer curtains of my hotel room window onto the three cuspidate globes of a street lantern below. Their milky glow sheds a dim light on a garland of begonias that arches over the roadway. It is a gray, early fall morning in Moscow.

      I have always been fascinated by the KGB, not for any specific reason. I love the insight on the whole organization as detailed in the book. This makes for an interesting read for those who like a real-life "thriller"
