The incredible true story of Ana Montes. In Code Name Blue Wren, investigative journalist Jim Popkin weaves the tale of two sisters who chose two very different paths, plus the unsung heroes who had to fight to bring Ana to justice. With exclusive access to a “Secret” CIA behavioral profile of Ana, family memoirs, and Ana’s incriminating letters from prison, Popkin reveals the making of a traitor — a woman labeled “one of the most damaging spies in U.S. history” by America’s top counterintelligence official.

Popkin is a writer and investigative journalist whose work has appeared in the Washington Post Magazine, WIRED, Newsweek, Slate, the Guardian, and on National Public Radio. He will be in conversation with Pete Williams, who covered the U.S. Supreme Court and the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security for NBC News for 29 years.
