Description
The Farewell Dossier is a gripping account of one of the most significant spy cases of the 20th century. In 1981, French President François Mitterrand presented the file to US President Ronald Reagan, which would later be described as "one of the greatest spy cases of the twentieth century". This remarkable story follows Vladimir Ippolitovitch Vetrov, a KGB agent who turned against his own country and became a double agent. Vetrov's journey from a promising technical student to a disillusioned analyst, and eventually to a DST agent, is one of intrigue and deception. With unprecedented access to the man behind the legend, authors Sergei Kostin and Eric Raynaud provide groundbreaking insight into Vetrov's psychological profile and his role in hastening the fall of the Soviet regime. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of espionage during the Cold War era, shedding new light on one of history's most infamous spy stories.
