The Main Enemy: The Inside Story of the CIA's Final Showdown with the KGB

A landmark collaboration between a 30-year veteran of the CIA & a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, The Main Enemy is an inside story of the CIA-KGB spy wars, told thru the actions of those who fought them. Based on 100s of interviews with operatives from both sides, it goes inside the heads of CIA officers as they dodge surveillance & walk into violent ambushes in Moscow. This is the story of the generation of spies who came of age in the shadow of the Cuban missile crisis & rose thru the ranks to run the KGB & CIA in the Cold War's last days. The clandestine operations they masterminded took them from the sewers of Moscow to the back streets of Baghdad, from Cairo & Havana to Prague & Berlin, but the action centers on DC, starting in the infamous 'Year of the Spy'--when, one by one, CIA agents in Moscow began to be killed up thru to the last man. Behind the scenes with CIA covert operations in Afghanistan, Bearden led America to victory in the secret war against the Soviets. He reveals what he did, whom America backed & why. He was recalled to DC after the USSR withdrew from Afghanistan & was made chief of the Soviet/E. European Division in time to witness the fall of the Berlin Wall, the revolutions that swept across Eastern Europe & the implosion of the USSR. Laced with revelations--about failsafe top-secret back channels between CIA & KGB, double & triple agents, covert operations in Berlin & Prague & the fateful autumn of '89--this is history at its action-packed best.
