Next-door Finland is even lower-profile. It has a domestic security agency (SuPo), which is part of the police, and a military intelligence agency. Any capability for foreign human intelligence is admirably hidden.

The others were Igor Sutyagin, who had worked at a think tank; Aleksandr Zaporozhsky, a KGB colonel who spied for America and helped unmask Ames and Hanssen, but unwisely returned to Russia; and Gennady Vasilenko, about whom little is known.

Sources differ on whether the man concerned was Oleg Penkovsky, the West's highest-ranking agent-in-place in the Soviet Union, or Piotr Popov, the first GRU officer to be recruited by the West, who was betrayed by the SIS officer George Blake. The account comes from
Aquarium – The Career and Defection of a Soviet Military Spy
(Hamish Hamilton, 1985) by Viktor Suvorov (the pen name of Vladimir Rezun).

The same ‘spotlighting' was experienced in 1996 by Norman MacSween, the then SIS station chief in Moscow, who was the case officer for Platon Obukhov, a 28-year-old foreign ministry employee. He was shown waiting vainly on a park bench in Moscow. See ‘British Diplomat Linked to Spy Case' by Owen Matthews,

, 31 July 1996.

Mr Patricof, a prominent New York-based financier, was a donor to President Bill Clinton's campaign and a friend of Mrs Clinton's. He admitted that he knew Mrs Murphy but insists he never discussed anything of a political or sensitive nature with her.

One might start by sparing a thought for the children involved, such as the Murphys' daughters. For them, their parents' foray into international espionage meant a painful and bewildering upheaval, ending in a return to Russia, a country they did not know with a language they did not speak. Children trust their parents above all and find even minor deceptions upsetting. The revelation of a double life will leave deep scars. Spouses can suffer quite badly too. A whiff of the hurt and distrust caused by the affair came in February 2011 with an interview given to
Caretas
, a Peruvian magazine, by Ms Peláez, who insisted that she had no idea that her husband of twenty years was not who he claimed to be. ‘Not even when we fought would I hear a word in Russian . . . not even in intonation. Such was his preparation.' Ms Peláez, who was handcuffed and put in prison uniform before the initial court hearing, shows some sympathy with her husband's cause, suffused with the grandiloquent rhetoric of Soviet-era solidarity with the Third World. She describes him as the ‘last Soviet hero' and an ‘unseen warrior', who told her: ‘I was brought up as a revolutionary, as an internationalist.' In a column for
Moscow News
, where she began as a regular contributor in August 2011, she says he is ‘sad' about how much life has changed in the thirty years since he left the Soviet Union. Her own son from a previous relationship and her younger son Juan (fathered by Vasenkov) have remained in New York. She said her husband ‘suffers for the lack of his son, to whom he dedicated his best hours and whom he now can't see'. She said she does not want to stay in Russia, where she is receiving a $2,000 monthly pension, but wishes to return to either Peru or Brazil eventually. Some doubt about Ms Peláez's eloquently expressed disappointment comes from the criminal complaint against her husband, in which FBI eavesdroppers say they overheard him talking to her about his family's wartime experiences in the Soviet Union: ‘We moved to Siberia . . . as soon as the war started.' It is conceivable, if unlikely, that she believed that he was a Uruguayan (perhaps of communist parents) who had spent the war years in the Soviet Union. Perhaps she knew he was spying but thought it was for another country, such as Cuba. The Peruvian authorities queried her marriage and birth certificates.

The intern, then aged 20, was one of Leon Fuerth's students. I have withheld his name at his request. His main job was to input data into the software, such as forecasts for China's growth. He resigned when Heathfield declined to accept his suggestions for improving the software. Nobody from the FBI has contacted him, or Mr Glenn (who still has a copy of the software), or four of Heathfield's other associates that I tracked down during research for this book.
