The dramatic and chilling story of an American-born Soviet spy in the atom bomb project in World War II, perfect for fans of The Americans.George Koval was born in Iowa. In 1932, his parents, Russian Jews who had emigrated because of anti-Semitism, decided to return home to live out their socialist ideals. George, who was as committed to socialism as they were, went with them. It was there that he was recruited by the Soviet Army as a spy and returned to the US in 1940. A gifted science student, he enrolled at Columbia University, where he knew scientists soon to join the Manhattan Project, America’s atom bomb program. After being drafted into the US Army, George used his scientific background and connections to secure an assignment at a site where plutonium and uranium were produced to fuel the atom bomb. There, and later in a second top-secret location, he had full access to all facilities and he passed highly sensitive information to Moscow. There were hundreds of spies in the US during World War II but Koval was the only Soviet military spy with security clearances in the atomic-bomb project. The ultimate sleeper agent, he was an all-American boy who had played baseball, loved Walt Whitman’s poetry, and mingled freely with fellow Americans. After the war got away without a scratch. It is indisputable that his information landed in the right hands in Moscow. In 1949 Soviet scientists produced a bomb identical to America’s years earlier than US experts expected.

The first thing that grabbed me in Ann Hagedorn’s yarn was the back story. With deep family roots in Galveston dating back to the Republic of Texas, I thought I knew a lot of the island’s history. But then Ann showed me the “Galveston Movement,” financed by rich New Yorkers in the early 1900s, which sponsored the immigration of 10,000 persecuted Eastern European Jews through the port of Galveston to avoid rising anti-Semitism in the Eastern U.S. Among the immigrants was the father of George Koval. The Koval family went to Iowa, where George was born and raised and where he grew passionate about Walt Whitman and baseball. He also grew increasingly radical, and pursued college chemistry in the Soviet Union, where he was recruited by Soviet military intelligence and sent back to America. U.S. security officials never showed any interest in publicizing their egregious failure to uncover George before he escaped to Russia after the Second World War but Ann has stitched together this true story of high drama and high-stakes espionage nonetheless. Anybody with an interest in previously unexplored history would it fresh and engaging. I ought to disclose that I was a journalistic colleague of Ann’s many years ago, but I’m also a knowledgeable student of history.
