Description: Dramatization of the true story of British agent Sydney Reilly, the world's first superspy. In this volume, Sakinov is killed, and Reilly returns to Russia. A risky thing to do, since it sets him and Stalin together in a game of cat and mouse. Reilly tries to get the Trust to prove themselves by killing Stalin and bringing anarchy to Russia. Stalin finds out, however, and has Reilly arrested. Reilly may be tortured, or even killed, but he has succeeded - the Trust is dead.
Notes: Based on the book: Ace of spies / by Robin Bruce Lockhart.
