You're listening to the CyberWireriefing from the International Spy Museum.

I'm Mark Stout, the Museum's Hist historian. Here at the museum we get the most

interesting authors including journalists, scholars, former spies, and intelligence

officers coming in to speak with our visitors and answer questions about their

latest works dealing with espionage,

intelligence, and other national security issues.

Please join me in listening to another of our selected hour-long author debriefings.

We have Kate Lineberry. author debriefings.

We have Kate Lienberry here to talk about her book The Secret Rescue, which we've just

seen this fabulous trailer for.

The book is available here in the room. Kate will sign afterwards.

She's had a great writing career.

She was a staff writer in Europe editor for National Geographic magazine and

the web editor for Smithsonian magazine

and I didn't even realize she had written an article that I loved until we were

emailing back and forth and she said oh well, well, I became a fan of the museum in 2007

when I was writing about Virginia Hall, the limping lady, and I worked with your executive

director, Peter Ernest.

So I said, oh, you're fantastic, such a great interest
