Sandy Grimes is a longtime veteran of the CIA’s clandestine service who—along with her colleague Jeanne Vertefeuille—helped capture Aldrich Ames, the infamous CIA officer turned traitor.

Ms. Grimes highlights the back story and capture of America’s most notorious spy, Aldrich Ames. She is the co-author of Circle of Treason, the first account written by CIA agents who were key members of the CIA team that conducted the intense “Ames Mole Hunt.”

Sandra Grimes and fellow author and former CIA colleague Jeanne Vertefeuille were two of the five principals of the CIA team tasked with hunting one of their own and were directly responsible for identifying Ames as the mole, leading to his arrest and conviction. Get the book here.
