The Masaryk File - A Memoir of the Cold War (Paperback, New edition)

Was Masaryk only a pawn on the chessboard of the great powers' secret services at the beginning of the Cold War? The Czech physician, Jan, tries to unravel the intricate story in which reasons of state are mixed with private passions. Jan's life, and the lives of the Western agent Robert and of his Russian adversary Nicholas, are dominated by consequences of Masaryk's death for several decades until a dramatic climax is reached in the Antipodes.
