Rufina, the wife of the most remarkable spy in the history of espionage, breaks her silence to tell the truth about her eighteen years of marriage to Kim Philby.

Now his Russian widow, Rufina, breaks her silence to tell the truth about her eighteen years of marriage to the British born spy and his turbulent life in the Soviet Union....Along with Rufina's extraordinary account, this book also includes Philby's unpublished memoirs, which give fresh insight into his youthful commitment to Communism and his recruitment by the Soviets.
