Dead Spy, Cold Grave - Paperback

by Michael J. Goodspeed (Author)

1951.

A growing Soviet threat.

A volatile nuclear arms race.

A dead body in the snow.

Canada's newly formed Special Branch is tasked to investigate the murder of a Soviet diplomat whose naked body is dumped on the American Ambassador's lawn.

With the Soviets refusing to cooperate, and growing pressure from allies to hand over the reins of the investigation, Inspector Declan Connelly and Canada's fledgling security service find themselves in an international tangle of early Cold War treachery and duplicity.

Dead Spy, Cold Grave is a gripping story of spies, moles and murderers, and the complications of being a small, inexperienced player in the deadly struggle for nuclear dominance.
