Code Name: Spirit
This book is a sequel to Code Name: William Tell, completing the fast-paced action adventure story of an amazing man working in the shadows of secret service to our country. It is written in the hope that our beloved nation will return and remain true to the vision of our Founding Fathers and live out our noble motto In God We Trust, thereby receiving the blessing of Almighty God. As an undercurrent in this story there is also a blueprint for the moral, spiritual and economic recovery of our ailing nation. One day, near the end of what he thought to be an unsuccessful term, a president in the solitude of the Oval Office found time to think of some way to make amends for his failures. He gave his imagination free rein. Soon an idea took form and began to grow into a solution to a serious problem: a solution that would become the closest held secret since the atomic bomb. From this secret would come a remarkable man, code named William Tell. For security reasons, his code name would later be changed to Spirit.

The truth finally comes out with the memoirs of their Soviet handler who tells all (or . . . almost all) with the blessing of the KGB, now known as the SVR. But which story is Kalistrat telling? The true facts, or those manipulated to ensure that the Rosenbergs appear to be innocent? How the story unfolds and what the Russians were really seeking becomes a nonstop espionage novel set in the 1940s and '50s. Was Julius Rosenberg paying for the mistakes of others? Did the KGB really want him and Ethel to live? Were there last-minute top secret negotiations between the United States and the Soviet Union that could have saved the Rosenbergs’ lives? These and other questions are asked and finally answered.
