This is the biography of a Russian who spied for the West. Colonel Penkovsky was convicted on spying and shot in Moscow in the spring of 1963. This case was a shock to the Soviet Coutner-intelligence system and the impact of the case can be compared to the Hiss trial in America. A fascinating look into Soviet Intelligence Service.
