The astonishing but true story of one of the most notorious spy cases from the Cold War—and the international manhunt that seized global attention as it revealed the shadowy world of deep cover KGB operatives. Based on new archival material and inside sources from around the world, Dead Doubles follows the hunt for the highly damaging Portland Spy Ring. This incredible narrative, layered with false identities, deceptions, and betrayal, crisscrosses from the UK to the USSR to the US and New Zealand, and brings to life one of the most extraordinary spy stories of the Cold War.

For Spy Junkies
Revisado: 08-30-21
Not the most thrilling title but it will scratch the m itch of anyone (like me) who devours espionage books. Unconventionally structured— many details are relayed after the main story has been fully told.
I don’t usually care about narration but the English narrator does a bad American Accent that sounds more Russian than American and doesn’t do any accents for the Russian characters. It’s hilariously bad, but also a little distracting. Your mileage may vary.

An important but rough story
Revisado: 11-06-20
This is mostly a story about the Latvian Holocaust, with a substantial spy story interlude. As such it is not a pleasant listen for its duration. wish I had known that going in but I’m very glad i listened. A good companion to Arendt’s Banality of Evil and a useful account how a small country was quickly conscripted into the Final Solution
