Deep undercover : my secret life & tangled allegiances as a KGB spy in America

Barsky, Jack -- 1949- (Author). Bowlby, Stephen. (Added Author). Blackstone Audio, Inc. (Added Author). Playaway Digital Audio. (Added Author). Findaway World, LLC. (Added Author).

Millions watched the CBS 60 Minutes special on Jack Barsky in 2015. Now the Soviet KGB agent tells his story of gut-wrenching choices, appalling betrayals, his turbulent inner world, and the secret life he lived for years without getting caught. In October 1978, a Canadian national named William Dyson stepped off a plane at O'Hare International Airport and proceeded through customs. Two days later, William Dyson ceased to exist. The identity was a KGB forgery, used to get their young, ambitious East German agent into the United States. The plan succeeded, and the spy's new identity was born: Jack Barsky. He would work undercover for the next decade, carrying out secret operations during the Cold War years -- until a surprising shift in his allegiance challenged everything he thought he believed in."
