HE AQUARIUM is the headquarters of the GRU - Soviet Military
Intelligence. There is only one way in, via special selection - and only
one exit: through the chimney of the crematorium. As a young officer
Viktor Suvorov commanded a tank company. But his skill and initiative
soon led his superiors to take notice - and he was transferred to Military
Intelligence. After training with SPETSNAZ - the Soviet SAS - he was
posted abroad. This is the gripping personal story of his day-to-day work
as a Soviet spy in Europe, and of why he defected rather than betray the
one associate he admired.
