Book Synopsis
Margaret Fuchs was thirteen in June 1955 when she learned that her parents had been Communists while working for the US government in the 1930s and '40s. This book chronicles the years during which her parents were exposed and her father was subpoenaed before the House Un-American Activities Committee.

Trade Review
Lively, personal, and a nice read.... I've worked with a number of red diaper babies all trying to come to terms with their parents' pasts, and I think Ms. Singer is to be congratulated for her persistence in writing this book and her forthrightness in telling her story and that of her parents. - R. Bruce Craig, Executive Director of the National Coalition for History in Washington, D.C., and author of Treasonable Doubt: The Harry Dexter White Spy Case
