Lena Kristoff is a researcher in the economics department at Leningrad Technical Institute. While working on the highest priority project of the time, a computer model of the entire Soviet economic system, she is inadvertently recruited by the CIA. If she can smuggle a copy of top secret files to the West, she can help change her country's totalitarian government and buy freedom for her family. Then she meets an American CIA courier named Eric Larson and they fall in love. Seizing an opportunity to copy the model files, she gives them to Larson to transport out of the country. Their happy days in Leningrad are interrupted when Larson's cover is suddenly blown and he must flee Russia. Confronted by border guards, both he and Lena are shot and presumed dead. Or so it seems. Lena escapes. But can she elude the powerful GRU, Russian military intelligence, and the dreaded KGB? She must risk everything to save her family. Her secret war against her government seems doomed to failure. 541 $d 20240209. 650 $a Moles (Spies) $v Fiction. 650 $a Soviet Union $x Fiction. 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 fast 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction.) $2 lcgft 655 6 $a Suspense fiction. 655 7 $a Spy fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l KIPB845 $d 20240416011750.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BFAD2A5CFBB611EE91A57D0E3AECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
