About this title

Synopsis

This book tells the story of a 25-year intelligence war with the Soviet Union that the United States lost. The book draws on years of research, exclusive interviews and thousands of unreleased documents. For the first time, members of the intelligence world go on record about four disasters. "Widows" reveals the first Soviet mole in the CIA, examines the real story of John Arthur Paisley, a key CIA officer who disappeared from his sailboat in 1978, and offers the first authentic account of Nicholas Feydorovich, a Soviet defector who gained access to the core of American intelligence and disappeared in Vienna while operating as a double agent. The book reaches a climax with the mysterious death of a premier double agent, Ralph Joseph Sigler.
