...forget Walter's tremendous coverage of the Kennedy assassination? I can still hear his emotion-laden voice as he tried to keep control.

Furthermore, nobody really wants him: neither the Russians, who accepted him only as a useful political pawn, nor the English, who jobbed him for much the same reason. Hillier also finds that nobody wants him either. He was sent to Russia so that an assassin, hired by his own intelligence agency, could erase a mind already too full of dangerous secrets...
