Summary

On The Team House this Friday is former CIA officer Marti Peterson. She was the first female case officer in Moscow and ran a strategic asset there. Marti's book was really amazing although a sad ending as her asset Alexandr Dmitryevich Ogorodnik (TRIGON) was captured by the KGB and bit down on a CIA provided suicide pill.
