The Observer: The
Colonel George Trofimoff Story is the second nonfiction book in The Prison
Trilogy by author, Glen Aaron. The author gives us an intimate look into the
fascinating and sometimes tragic life of Colonel Trofimoff. Aaron is a consummate storyteller, and I was
amazed at his thoroughness. His skill as an attorney is apparent as he builds
and organizes an enormous amount of in-depth material for the reader to absorb.
Colonel Trofimoff, was America’s highest-ranking military officer to be
convicted of spying for the Russian KGB. He was a victim of a complicated
two-year long sting operation which resulted in what can only be termed as a
travesty of justice. The author profiles the Colonel from the time he was a
young boy during WWII through his conviction and ultimate incarceration for
life in the year, 2000. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in a fascinating
look at our flawed American justice system.
