From mid-1940s until nearly the present. Not a whodunit, although there are plenty of false leads. This is a serious piece of reporting, meant to provide a basis for other research.

Koval was a skillful and astute spy, which extended to his knowing when to get out of America, ahead of the House Un-American Activities Committee and FBI, and return to the USSR where he became a professor of chemistry at the same school where he received his degree before his return to the U.S. years earlier. Koval spent eight years here on a “business trip,” ultimately a success for the Soviet Union. ( )
