Outline

During World War II the Soviet government operated a large spy ring that sought atomic secrets in Great Britain, Canada and USA. The success of this operation enabled the Russians to explode an atomic bomb several years earlier than believed possible. Not until the US ‘Venona’ code-cracking breakthrough was the full extent of the Soviet penetration revealed.
