Not as interesting as i'd expected. i was interested in hanssen but almost half the book is about louis freeh, the fbi director and problems within the bureau. also, there are a number of completely unneeded and very sexual details. while hanssen's deviancy is important to understanding his actions, this could have been conveyed without such explicit details.

The story behind the story: Those who saw the made-for-tv movie on this subject will enjoy this read. An introduction to a twisted, two-faced lifestyle lived by a man smart enough to pull it off...until...
I will not spoil it for those who don't know about this case.
Good book,Good story.

I followed the story in the magazines and papers when it was breaking. This book puts it all together. Great cold war spy account.
