The Portland spy ring was one of the most infamous espionage cases from the Cold War. The CIA's revelation in 1960 that a KGB agent was stealing crucial secrets from the world-leading submarine research base at Portland in Dorset led MI5 to a British man and his mistress. They were tailed to a covert meeting with a Canadian businessman, Gordon Lonsdale. He in turn guided MI5's spycatchers to an innocent-looking couple in suburban Ruislip called the Krogers. But there was much, much more to Lonsdale and the Krogers than first met the eye... Told here for the first time using hitherto secret MI5 and FBI files, this is a true story of infiltration and treachery.
