In the summer of 1979, sixteen-year-old Jocelyn St Clair left Hong Kong with her father on an epic 8,500-mile journey home through Japan, Siberia, the Soviet Union and Cold War Europe.
Travelling aboard the legendary Trans-Siberian Railway, their adventure involved forgotten passports, mysterious food, Soviet customer dis-service, the Kremlin, Red Square, Leningrad — and being arrested by the KGB after Jocelyn's father decided to photograph Russian airliners.
Funny, fascinating and sometimes frightening, From Russia with Fear is the true story of an extraordinary journey through a cold war world that has now disappeared.
