About this listen
He was a career CIA officer. He was also a spy for the Soviet Union.
In 1985, Aldrich Ames began selling secrets to the KGB—compromising dozens of CIA operations and costing the lives of multiple American agents. What followed was nearly a decade of deception, luxury, and death, all fueled by greed and personal failure. The CIA had no idea it was being gutted from the inside.
In Aldrich Ames: The CIA Turncoat Who Sold Secrets to Moscow, author David G. Stone unpacks the full story of America’s most damaging mole. From his troubled personal life to his lavish spending, from the FBI's meticulous sting operation to the chilling aftermath, this biography explores how one man shattered the foundations of U.S. intelligence.
Perfect for listeners of Cold War history, spy biographies, and true betrayal in the intelligence community.
