This week on The Rest Is Classified a very special story for me - that of Vasili Mitrokhin, the archivist who escaped with the KGB's deepest secrets thanks to a wild MI6 exfiltration. It's the subject of my book "The Spy in the Archive" out next week - linktr.ee/triclassified

Gordon Corera’s The Spy in the Archive is a striking memorial to Vasili Mitrokhin, the KGB archivist who smuggled out of Russia a ‘counterintelligence bonanza’ ⬇️ thetimes.com/culture/books/…

Always a bit nervous for first book reviews and particularly when I saw this one was by Professor Christopher Andrew who worked with Mitrokhin so something of a relief to read it...... The Spy in the Archive by Gordon Corera: 4-star review telegraph.co.uk/books/non-fict…

“One of the most consequential Russian defectors in history was turned away several times by the US before he was eventually accepted by Britain.” A Shaun Walker story on my book “The Spy in the Archive” looks at how the CIA turned away Mitrokhin theguardian.com/world/2025/jun…

A review of the Spy in the Archive from GillBHistoryMatters "Corera’s in-depth account of Mitrokhin’s career and character, and analysis of what drove his defection, tells us much that is new and illuminating. Mitrokhin was a complicated and conflicted man" engelsbergideas.com/reviews/how-mi…
