Kennedy's source turned out to be a top-ranking defector from the KGB. Russia's ubiquitous security apparatus, whose French code name was "Martel."

When members of the French SDECE began questioning Martel, they were startled by his claims.

She and Peter, a draft resister who has dropped out of Columbia, began cranking out mimeographed leaflets calling the case a "Victorian drama." They also distributed questionnaires asking other...
