Deep Undercover by Jack Barsky

My Secret Life and Tangled Allegiances as a KGB Spy in America

A former Cold War sleeper agent recounts being recruited, trained, and planted in the United States under a carefully constructed identity, then living a double life for decades—building a career, relationships, and a facade of normalcy while carrying out clandestine duties and reporting to handlers; the narrative blends detailed spy tradecraft with personal reflection on divided loyalties, the psychological strain of sustained deception, and the events that ultimately led to his exposure and the complicated aftermath.
