{"product_id":"the-man-from-odessa","title":"The Man from Odessa","description":"Greville Wynne was a British businessman and British agent who was going to be used to extract Col. Oleg Penkovsky  the Wests top agent  from East to West  using a specially adapted hinged vehicle ostensibly for use as a travelling exhibition of British engineering products. so far so good. Then Penkovsky is arrested and condemned to death in Moscow. Wynne  by that time in Budapest  is arrested  flown out and ends up in a Soviet prison. This book is about that period of the authors life (covered also in his other book  The Man From Moscow) but also covers previous intelligence and security activities Wynne got tangled up in  from WW2 undercover security work (not very impressive frankly  one example being befriending a man who dissented from the Churchill pro-war policy  then reporting on that man; he was detained later...) to quite dangerous missions in the Soviet Union and elsewhere. Wynne was eventually exchanged for the Soviet spy Gordon Lonsdale\/Konon Molody.","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44633273270325,"sku":"ByrdShop_0586057099","price":225.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_0586057099_db1528fa-4fac-44fb-8294-41d1c349bac3.jpg?v=1768243986","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-man-from-odessa","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
