NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The master storyteller (San Francisco Chronicle) behind the New York Times bestseller The Spy and the Traitor uncovers the true story behind one of the Cold Wars most intrepid spies.[An] immensely exciting, fastmoving account.The Washington PostNAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Foreign Affairs Kirkus Reviews Library JournalIn 1942, in a quiet village in the leafy English Cotswolds, a thin, elegant woman lived in a small cottage with her three children and her husband, who worked as a machinist nearby. Ursula Burton was friendly but reserved, and spoke English with a slight foreign accent. By all accounts, she seemed to be living a simple, unassuming life. Her neighbors in the village knew little about her.They didnt know that she was a highranking Soviet intelligence officer. They didnt know that her husband was also a spy, or that she was running powerful agents across Europe. Behind the facade of her picturesque life, Burton was a dedicated Communist, a Soviet colonel, and a veteran agent, gathering the scientific secrets that would enable the Soviet Union to build the bomb.This truelife spy story is a masterpiece about the woman codenamed Sonya. Over the course of her career, she was hunted by the Chinese, the Japanese, the Nazis, MI5, MI6, and the FBIand she evaded them all. Her story reflects the great ideological clash of the twentieth centurybetween Communism, Fascism, and Western democracyand casts new light on the spy battles and shifting allegiances of our own times.With unparalleled access to Sonyas diaries and correspondence and neverbeforeseen information on her clandestine activities, Ben Macintyre has conjured a pageturning history of a legendary secret agent, a woman who influenced the course of the Cold War and helped plunge the world into a decadeslong standoff between nuclear superpowers.
