Meier has unearthed an extraordinary story in the history of relations between America and the Soviet Union, and his account of the life and death of Isaiah Oggins, a New York intellectual who became a Russian spy and was brutally murdered in 1947 on Stalin’s orders, is an utterly compelling slice of Cold War history.
