About this listen

Step into a world of shadow diplomacy, double agents, and nuclear tension in this riveting exploration of the Cold War era.

In The Cold War Files, acclaimed historian and bestselling author Isabella Hayes delivers a powerful narrative of one of the most dangerous and defining periods in modern history. From the chilling silence of spy tunnels beneath Berlin to the nerve-wracking hours of the Cuban Missile Crisis, this audiobook brings to life the hidden battles, betrayals, and global maneuverings that shaped the post-war world.

Through vivid storytelling and meticulous research, listeners will uncover the high-stakes intelligence operations, ideological showdowns, and psychological warfare that unfolded between the United States and the Soviet Union. Hayes examines the global impact of the Cold War—from proxy wars and propaganda to the militarization of space and the eventual collapse of the Soviet empire.

In this immersive audiobook, you’ll discover:

•How covert operations by the CIA, KGB, MI6, and Stasi defined the era

•The rise and fall of the Berlin Wall and what it symbolized globally

•The human cost of nuclear brinkmanship and psychological warfare

•The revolutions that toppled communist regimes across Eastern Europe

•How Cold War strategies continue to influence intelligence, surveillance, and geopolitics today

Perfect for listeners of political thrillers, spy histories, and serious nonfiction, The Cold War Files delivers suspense, insight, and essential historical context for understanding today’s world.

History isn’t just written—it’s intercepted, encrypted, and decoded.

Listen now and unlock the secrets of the Cold War.
