  • S1E05 The Insider Threat
    Nov 10 2026

    In October 2026, the FBI arrested a CIA contractor with a Top Secret clearance and charged him under the Espionage Act. Prosecutors allege Ian Brinksman pulled five classified reports outside his job and that their contents mirrored his girlfriend's newsletter — then, in a turn almost unheard of in Espionage Act cases, a judge let him out on bail. The true story of the insider threat from inside the mole-hunters themselves, as of November 7, 2026.

This is the true story of Virginia Hall, the American woman who ran a spy network in Lyon on a wooden leg, crossed the Pyrenees in winter to escape Klaus Barbie's hunters, and went back into France to arm the resistance before D-Day.
