Coerced by British and American Intelligence, Blair journeys to Moscow to determine whether Bluebird’s manuscript contains the truth—or the darkest of fictions./divdivBR At once poignant and suspenseful, John le Carré’s iThe Russia House/i is a captivating saga of lives caught in the crosshairs of history./divbr
