Synopsis

Moscow, 1959: Katya is young, beautiful – and a spy for the Americans. When she begins spying on Alexander, an idealistic Communist politician, the last thing she expects is to fall in love with him. Her choice between love and duty leads to a nail-biting conclusion that Alexander and his niece Lauren can only unravel decades later in New York. Their journey back to the dangerous streets of Moscow uncovers a love triangle and betrayals from those he trusted most.
