Bookroo's summary

In a world of espionage and betrayal, two Americans are jailed for selling secrets to the Russians. Fellow inmate Larry Holtz aids their escape, only to find himself entangled in a web of deceit. As classified documents surface, the truth blurs between fact and fiction. How did they access top-secret files, and what will Larry uncover about his own involvement? Dive into a tale where every revelation raises more questions, and the line between ally and enemy is razor-thin.
