Exit Moscow: The Spy Who Escaped the KGB and Broke the Soviet Code

What happens when the KGB's top man in London is secretly working for the enemy and they find out?

Oleg Gordievsky was raised in the heart of Soviet power. Groomed by the KGB, fluent in the language of lies, and stationed in foreign embassies, he was the perfect product of the state. But beneath the polished surface was a man questioning everything he had been taught to believe.

In 1968, the brutal crushing of the Prague Spring changed everything. What Gordievsky witnessed turned him from loyal officer to silent dissenter. And then, to traitor.

By day, he rose to become the KGB's top official in Britain. By night, he passed Soviet secrets to MI6 insight that shaped Western policy, exposed deep-cover agents, and helped prevent nuclear war. For over a decade, he lived a double life more dangerous than fiction.

But in 1985, everything collapsed.

Betrayed by a CIA turncoat, summoned back to Moscow, and drugged during brutal interrogations, Gordievsky knew the next move would be fatal. There would be no trial. No mercy. Only silence.

Unless he vanished.

What followed was a heart-pounding escape coded messages, decoy trails, secret rendezvous, and a car trunk hurtling toward the Finnish border with Soviet guards just feet away. One mistake, and he'd disappear forever.

Exit Moscow is the explosive true story of one man's war against the regime he was trained to serve. It's about courage, conviction, and the cost of defiance in a world where betrayal is a death sentence.

This is not a novel. This happened.

Will he make it across the border or vanish into the shadows of the USSR forever?
