He is rushing to join a meeting about the planned arrest of three people who have broken the Official Secrets Act by selling information. The codename for this operation is Troika. Before the raid by Special Branch at 6 am, Greenaway sends a coded message to Moscow. When Cowley is arrested he tells Jordan that he has valuable information to tell him. After the raid they have arrested both Cowley and Morris but the third, Greenaway, has escaped, dressed as a woman, with a fake passport. Special Branch is then told by American Intelligence that Greenaway is really Major Igor Alexandrov, a KGB sleeper agent. Written by Bernard-Dunne See less
