Dragon Lady

When the truth is classified, the lies become deadly.
Espionage thrillers are thrilling on screen-but when the story is true, the stakes are far more chilling.

In 1960, at the height of the Cold War, an American U-2 spy plane was shot down deep inside Soviet airspace. What followed was a global incident that nearly tipped the world into open conflict. The U.S. government scrambled to cover its tracks. The Soviets played their propaganda hand masterfully. And behind the scenes, spies on both sides pushed the boundaries of secrecy and deception.

With page-turning suspense, this book uncovers the gripping true story of one of the most infamous intelligence failures in U.S. history. From high-altitude reconnaissance missions to high-stakes diplomacy, it's a story of bold risk, catastrophic miscalculation, and international intrigue that echoes to this day.

Perfect for readers of Cold War history, military nonfiction, and real-life spy stories.
