Originally published in 1964, this insider account of the Cold War spy exchange is now the basis for the major motion picture Bridge of Spies, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Tom Hanks. With a new foreword by bestselling author Jason Matthews, the narrative unfolds on February 10, 1962, as James B. Donovan walks toward the Glienicke Bridge, the “Bridge of Spies,” linking West Berlin to East. Accompanying him is Rudolf Ivanovich Abel, a master spy and chief of Soviet espionage in the U.S. Approaching from the other side, guarded heavily, is Francis Gary Powers, the American U-2 pilot shot down by the Soviets, whose exchange Donovan negotiated. This dramatic meeting symbolizes the clash of two worlds. Abel, a gifted and enigmatic spy, was revealed during his trial in Brooklyn and the Supreme Court, showcasing Soviet espionage methods. Donovan, appointed to defend Abel, skillfully navigated the complexities of the case. In this memoir, the lead prosecutor of the Nuremberg Trials presents a compelling blend of procedural drama and character study, reading like a noirish thriller. Featuring unseen photographs, trial notes, and sketches from Abel’s prison cell, this account offers a captivating historical narrative that is both fascinating and exciting.

SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE starring Jennifer Lawrence, Joel Edgerton and Jeremy Irons. Dominika Egorov, former prima ballerina, is sucked into the heart of Putin's Russia, the country she loved, as the twists and turns of a betrayal and counter-betrayal unravel. American Nate Nash, idealistic and ambitious, handles the double agent, codenamed MARBLE, considered one of CIA's biggest assets. He needs to keep his identity secret for as long as the mole can keep supplying golden information. Will Dominika be able to unmask MARBLE, or will the mission see her faith destroyed in the country she has always passionately defended? 'A great and dangerous spy-game is being played today between Russian intelligence and the CIA. Very few people know about it, including many of our politicians in Washington. But Jason Matthews does, and his thrilling Red Sparrow takes us deep inside this treacherous world. He's an insider's insider. He knows the secrets. And he is also a masterful story-teller. I loved this book and could not put it down. Neither will you' Vince Flynn 'Not since the good old days of the Cold War has a classic spy thriller like Red Sparrow come along. Jason Matthews is not making it up; he has lived this life and this story, and it shows on every page. High-level espionage, pulse-pounding danger, sex, double agents and double crosses.
