When the author was a young writer and his wife was pregnant, they had to get jobs fast. David Hoffman found himself working at a well-known Washington DC newspaper. He soon learned that this paper was run by spies for the KGB, more specifically, the Soviet Union. The paper tells elaborate lies about US government's actions and movements but there is only one person who knows the truth--one person who has the ability to expose the paper's secrets: Dan Woren.

In "The Billion Dollar Spy", David Hoffman once again delivers a true story that is all too relevant to the current tense and troubling geopolitical climate. The book tells the story of James Jesus Angleton, who was head of intelligence for America's Central Intelligence Agency from 1954-1974. Angleton was behind some of the most brilliant espionage operations in history, like successfully inserting moles into the Soviet Union's intelligence services. However, these successes were outweighed by his failures, including one particular case in 1960 where he failed to detect an infiltration and ended up with an agent who had been feeding him false information.

The Billion Dollar Spy follows the story of Robert Hanssen, a highly-trained FBI agent who worked his way up to head of counterintelligence. Hanssen discovered a mole inside the FBI, who eventually led to him being convicted of spying for the Soviet Union and Russia.
