Publisher's Summary

"A captivating Cold War page-turner." (Real Simple)

The New York Times best-selling author of The Summer Wives returns with a gripping and profoundly human story of Cold War espionage and family devotion.

In the autumn of 1948, Iris Digby vanishes from her London home with her American diplomat husband and their two children. The world is shocked by the family’s sensational disappearance. Were they eliminated by the Soviet intelligence service? Or have the Digbys defected to Moscow with a trove of the West’s most vital secrets?

Four years later, Ruth Macallister receives a postcard from the twin sister she hasn’t seen since their catastrophic parting in Rome in the summer of 1940, as war engulfed the continent and Iris fell desperately in love with an enigmatic United States Embassy official named Sasha Digby. Within days, Ruth is on her way to Moscow, posing as the wife of counterintelligence agent Sumner Fox in a precarious plot to extract the Digbys from behind the Iron Curtain.

But the complex truth behind Iris’s marriage defies Ruth’s understanding, and as the sisters race toward safety, a dogged Soviet KGB officer forces them to make a heartbreaking choice between two irreconcilable loyalties.

Gripping story, great characters

From the very beginning, I was drawn to the two sisters and their complex characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the complex plot and descriptive writing as the characters developed through gradual glimpses of the past interwoven with the present. The narrator, while a little irritating as some of the characters, still did an excellent performance, and I found I was binge listening for the second half of the novel. A great read!

Iris character voice is so bad

I’m having some trouble with this book because the narration of Iris is just so terrible. Nothing like I’ve heard before.
