A true life story about a man who spied against the USA and then confessed to it and testified against another very famous spy. If you know any Cold War history you know the name of that spy. You also would recognize the name of the prosecuting attorney in the case, who latter became the President of the United States. Great human story and history you should know.

It is a good and necesary book, though 800 pages is a little long. Some parts are better skimmed, but you can see he is genuine, if somewhat naive.
