In the Enemy's House by Howard Blum
From a New York Times bestselling author and Pulitzer-nominated journalist, the recently de-classified story of the Cold War spies who changed the world.
‘The spy hunt set off by the Venona decrypts is one of the great stories of the Cold War and Howard Blum tells it here with the drama and page-turning pace of a classic thriller’ -- Joseph Kanon, bestselling author of Defectors, Leaving Berlin, and Los Alamos
‘A finely detailed study of crime and punishment in the days of the Manhattan project… [In the Enemy's House] reinforces several points: how thoroughly Soviet agents were able to penetrate the government and scientific circles and the undeniable guilt of those who were eventually brought to justice – and, to boot, the ordinariness of some of the key players. Taut and well-crafted – of great interest to students of spydom and the early Cold War.’ -- Kirkus Reviews
