Do you know how fascinated I am with spies? I have been ever since I was a young girl. So much so, that I made some of the antagonists in my book, Countdown America, spies. And not just spies, double agents right out of Russia. I thought it would be fun to share some tidbits about the Russian spy world and some movie favorites that real spies watch. These are great movies. I have not heard of some of these movies, but am looking forward to watching them!
