So, was Rees himself actually a spy? The recent opening of KGB files has acted as a spur to Jenny Rees in her quest to exorcisethe past. The result is full of unexpected revelation, made all the more moving as Jenny Rees discovers for the first time the secret life of her father. Subject: Rees, Goronwy, 1909-1979 - Biography.
