The New York Timesâ??bestselling "first-rate spy story" of the FBI agent who sold top-secret information to the Russians for more than twenty years (Entertainment Weekly).
Drawing from a wide variety of sources in the FBI, the Justice Department, the White House, and the intelligence community, Pulitzer Prizeâ??winning author David A. Vise tells the story of how FBI counterintelligence agent Robert Philip Hanssen employed the very sources and methods his own nation had entrusted to him in a devious game of deceitâ??simply because he had something to prove. Vise also interweaves the narrative of how FBI director Louis B. Freeh led the government's desperate search for its betrayer among its own ranks, from the false leads, to the near misses, to its ultimate, shocking conclusion. Fascinating, gripping, and provocative, The Bureau and the Mole is a harrowing tale of how one man's treachery rocked a fraternity built on fidelity, bravery, and integrityâ??and how the dedicated perseverance of another brought him to justice.
"Absorbing . . . Vise's account of Mr. Hanssen's road to becoming a double agent is fascinating." â??Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times… (mere)
En mycket bra bok för alla oss som gillar spionage dokumentärer. Denna bok handlar om en av dom , Robert Hansen och som kanske är den som har skadat sitt land mest av alla. ( )
Somewhat of a dual biography of former FBI director Louis Freeh and American Traitor Robert Hanssen. Unfortunately you'll finish this book wanting more. Simply due to the nature of espionage, details of the case are few and far between, but I couldn't find any better wrap up of the Hanssen case than what Vise laid out. It's a well written book about a sad piece of American History. ( )
