Who was Kitty Harris? She was a key organiser of Soviet espionage networks across the globe, running agents in London, Shanghai, Mexico City and Los Alamos. She was Donald Maclean's controller and lover in London and Paris; she worked with Richard Sorge and Agnes Smedley in Shanghai, she was a common law wife to Earl Browder, General Secretary to the Communist Party of the United States; she masterminded the penetration of the Manhattan Project, the American atomic bomb development programme, and organised an 'illegal' spy ring in Mexico. A master of disguise and different identities, Kitty Harris was thought to have disappeared in the Soviet Union, but her extraordinary story can now be told by a senior Russian Intelligence Official who has had access to her astonishing archive.
