During the waning years of the Cold War, the U.S., Canada, France, and Great Britain conspire to support an uprising of the Hungarian people against their Soviet aggressors. CIA operative Colette Cahill works undercover at the American Embassy in Budapest, where she runs one of the most valuable assets the U.S. has acquired. Soon, the Russians discover the plot and dead bodies turn up on two continents. Murder in the CIA, by Margaret Truman, takes Cahill from Budapest to London to New York City, Washington, D.C., and the British Virgin Islands in search of the mole who's leaking information. A terrific thriller!
