About the Book

Lessons from the Cold War are coming back to life. In the early 1950s, when Wiley Earnest Freeman arrived in besieged Korea, the wheels of fate and fortune for a good many people shifted gears. Earlier, as a platoon sergeant on the frontlines in World War II, Wiley Earnest Freeman grew familiar with the layout of a typical battlefield, but the Cold War has changed everything. Now the bustling streets of major cities and the boardrooms of government organizations are where the really lethal dramas play out. To combat the Soviet threat, the United States is fielding a new kind of operative-like Freeman, who's selected to join the Department of State's international information program.

When Freeman is sent on assignment to South Korea, Japan, Thailand, and elsewhere, he meets important allies and encounters hostile enemies. An elderly Australian missionary, a Soviet double agent, a noted female correspondent, an American security expert, and an adventurous female diplomat all play roles in Freeman's early exploits.

Although Freeman finds friendship and even romance on his missions, his life is frequently at risk, and he sees a key colleague killed by Communist insurgents. Upon learning of a Soviet mole in the US government, he quietly notifies an FBI contact. In a scheme involving double agents, the Vatican and others, the treacherous spy comes under close surveillance. The battlefield may indeed be very different, but Freeman's loyalty to his country will never waver. Will this idealism be his demise?
About the Author:

C. Robert Beecham is a retired foreign service officer. He drew on his numerous experiences with global affairs as inspiration in writing Dire Road to the Untold.

Beecham served in the FBI right out of high school and then on the frontlines of World War II as a US infantryman. After attending college on the GI Bill, he worked for the Department of State and then the fledgling US Information Agency. At USIA, Beecham and his colleagues made major strides in the field of international relations and advocated for the new concept of "public diplomacy." Beecham believes that the restoration of public diplomacy efforts to inform foreign publics concerning US policies, democratic freedoms, and social equality is increasingly critical in the face of several global crises.

After retirement, Beecham wrote and published a monthly newsletter, the Chronicle of International Communication, which was provided to the Library of Congress for reference purposes. He lives with his wife in Virginia.
