Özet
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.©1995 Oleg Gordievsky (P)2018 W. F.

As a person always fascinated by the Cold War this seemed to be a perfect candidate to listen to. It does certainly deliver, in both writing and the performance of Saul Reichlin.

Fascinating read

This story provides a unique insight into an otherwise sealed society. I would recommend this as a ”must-read/must-listen” to anyone interested in security, policy or recent world history. The fact that the story is exciting and easy to follow is a nice bonus.

Unique insight

An incredible insight into social experiments carried out on a giant scale. What comes across is the paranoia feeding on paranoia, and official ineptitude and unlimited interference in people’s lives. Man’s inhumanity to man knows no limitation when freedom is limited and power is not.

Fascinating

Absolutely superb. This book had a feel of being a brilliant story, but I had to keep coming back to reality and remember that it's all true! All the details of an incredible man, and the incredible sacrifices made by that man to keep the world safe from the evil empire. Plus it always amazes me to think that the Fort that is only about 30 seconds down the road from my house, is where a lot of this story actually occurred.

The real story behind all those spy novels
