Blending the pace of a thriller with original reportage and research, The Terminal Spy documents Litvinenko's life and death, the ensuing police investigation, the reaction from Vladimir Putin and others in Moscow, the Russian ‚migr‚ set in London, and the implications of this case for nuclear proliferation and international terrorism in the future.
