"Fool's Mate" tells the true stories of two traitors working different sides of the Cold War. One is an arrogant, lonely U.S. Army soldier serving in the highly secretive National Security Agency. The other is an ambitious KGB officer with access to the U.S.S.R.'s most sensitive documents. Both betray their countries, but their fates and motivations are very different. "Fool's Mate" reconstructs the Lipka investigation through the eyes of author John Whiteside, the FBI Special Agent who led the case from start to finish, telling a story as relevant today as it was in 1965. With the arrest of ten Russian illegals in 2010 and the 2013 release of classified National Security Agency documents by Edward Snowden, "Fool's Mate" reminds us just how vulnerable national security is to both foreign intelligence services and men like Lipka, willing to sell out their country from within.

FBI Special Agent John Whiteside served the Bureau from 1971 until his retirement in 2001. As the case agent for the Lipka investigation, he was involved in all aspects of the case, from the beginning of the investigation in 1992 to Lipka's 1997 conviction. He decided to tell the story following the deaths of two key witnesses in the case. Mr. Whiteside continues to provide counterintelligence consulting to the U.S. Government, and currently resides in Chester County, Pennsylvania.
