The Seven Million Dollar Spy reveals, for the first time, the inside story of the dramatic US counterintelligence operation that resulted in the capture of the most dangerous mole working for Russia inside US intelligence. Now, the former senior KGB spy, to whom the US paid seven million dollars for Moscow's file on the mole, is identified by both his real and code names.
The audiobook also reveals how a death threat by the Russian Mafia against the former senior KGB spy over a spoiled caviar deal worth millions was the key to unmasking the mole inside US intelligence.
The Seven Million Dollar Spy tells the story, and final success, of the determined FBI counterspy who spent six years pursuing the mole and approaching 27 potential KGB sources - despite pressure to stop from his superiors who said he was wasting both time and money with nothing to show for it.
Until the 28th spy.

I found the second half of the book was better than the first half. The first half was a hodge podge of US and Soviet spies. The timeline in the book jumped around which made the story less clear. The first half deals with Aldrich Ames which has been covered better in many other books. This book did reference the sad story of Adolph Tolkachev (highly recommend reading The Billion Dollar Spy by David Hoffman to learn more). The second half of the book was focused on Robert Hanssen. Even though there are other books about him, I learned some new information about Hanssen. I also enjoyed learning about Gennadiy Vasilenko and Jack Platt. That was an interesting story. This is why I rounded up to 4 stars.
The author did repeat information several times throughout the book, especially in the epilogue. I think more editing could have made this book 5 stars.
