In 1987, the author, a senior U.S. Army counterintelligence (CI) agent, became the partner of a close friend, Clyde Lee Conrad, at the head of a spy ring which had sold NATO secrets for twelve years to Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Russia. He helped his friend sell secrets, craft a new plan for recruitment of U.S. soldiers for Hungary, and plan kidnaping, torture, and murder. Nine agents and couriers in five countries were eventually convicted of espionage and treason. No actual names are used in this book, without permission, except those connected with the spy ring. The operation and innovative trade-craft employed by the author were hailed by many as the most significant in U.S. Army counterespionage (CE) history.






"This is a true story written by a good friend of mine, Danny L. Williams. Like many invisible heroes in the intelligence community, his story has been classified for years … pending review and approval by the Army, NSA, CIA, and FBI. If you want to know how counterespionage works in the real world, this is the book."
