The author's detailed account of how, virtually single-handed, he planned and engineered George Blake's escape from prison; of how he spirited him out of England and then to Moscow; and of how, a few weeks later he followed him to Moscow by way of Paris. It is also an account of the two extraordinary years Bourke spent in Russia until his return to Ireland on the second anniversary of the jail-break.
