The “master storyteller” (San Francisco Chronicle) behind the New York Times bestseller The Spy and the Traitor uncovers the true story behind the Cold War’s most intrepid female spy.“[An] immensely exciting, fast-moving 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 didn’t know that she was a high-ranking Soviet intelligence officer. They didn’t 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 true-life spy story is a masterpiece about the woman code-named “Sonya.” Over the course of her career, she was hunted by the Chinese, the Japanese, the Nazis, MI5, MI6, and the FBI—and she evaded them all. Her story reflects the great ideological clash of the twentieth century—between Communism, Fascism, and Western democracy—and casts new light on the spy battles and shifting allegiances of our own times.With unparalleled access to Sonya’s diaries and correspondence and never-before-seen information on her clandestine activities, Ben Macintyre has conjured a page-turning history of a legendary secret agent, a woman who influenced the course of the Cold War and helped plunge the world into a decades-long standoff between nuclear superpowers.

I am an uncritical fan of Ben MacIntyre but this book reflects a certain modern liberal zeitgeist .Sonya was for decades in the service of a regime and an ideology of unimaginable evil--one which we were forced to look the other way in WW2. Can one imagine any author or any publisher coming within a mile of any book which detailed with some sympathy the life of a Nazi spy? Well yes Hitler was bad but these Nazi idealists were trying to create a "new kind of man". She contributed to the deaths and enslavement of millions of people by working to support Stalinism. Much later she regrets. Yes Stalin was bad but she did not return her medals or seriously make amends, living out her final years in East Germany, for God's sake! Her abetting of Klaus Fuchs is actually indirectly excused by MacIntyre as somehow preventing war by evening up the East/West power balance! Fuchs got 13 years, the Rosenbergs got the chair. Western Liberals seem constitutionally unable to get beyond:Russia was a nightmare but somehow their Western dupes had their hearts in the right place. NB:Notice that Trump is always Hitler, never Stalin.
