This book details the poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia with the nerve agent Novichok in Salisbury, England, on March 4, 2018. The incident marked a significant escalation in international relations between the West and Russia, reminiscent of the Cold War era. The narrative explores Skripal's past as a spy in Russian Military Intelligence, his recruitment by MI6, his imprisonment, and his eventual release in a spy swap. It places his story within the broader context of contemporary espionage between Russia and Western nations.
