Target Tokyo: The Story Of The Sorge Spy Ring (1984) By Gordon W. Prange
Richard Sorge was possibly the most successful spy to have lived. Born in Russia and educated in Germany, Sorge posed as a Nazi, but his early conversion to communism made him fertile ground for the espionage cadres of the Soviet Union and he was despatched to Tokyo. Sorge warned Stalin of the German invasion one month before it happened and is supposed to have communicated Japanese plans for the attack on Pearl Harbor to Russia. In this fascinating account, Prange conveys vividly the atmosphere of duplicity on the highest levels, of betrayals both personal and national.
