Dr. Peter Volkovitsky, a physicist with the National Institute of Standards, worked for 25 years in one of the key Soviet nuclear laboratories. Fascinated by the history of the Soviet fission nuclear bomb (A-bomb) and the fusion nuclear bomb (H-bomb), he met many of the major players in the Soviet nuclear weapons program. To mark the 50th anniversary of the explosion of the Tsar Bomba—the highest nuclear fusion bomb ever tested—Volkovitsky will give an intimate look inside the Soviet nuclear weapons program.

From inside a federal prison, former CIA operative Jim Nicholson directed his son Nathan on a global trek to collect the pension promised to him by his handlers for spying on behalf of Russia. From 2006 to 2008, Nathan smuggled his father’s messages to Russian intelligence officers on three continents in exchange for cold cash. The father-son exploits echoed those of notorious spy John Walker, the retired Navy communications specialist who in 1983 lured his pliable son Michael into his spy ring. The Walkers orchestrated one of the most devastating security breaches in U.S. history.
