The author.




Thomas Moore and John Anderson were Masonic brothers of Georgetown Lodge in Washington, D.C., during the period leading up to the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. Commander Moore worked in naval intelligence at the National Photographic Interpretation Center at the Washington Navy Yard. His responsibilities included the analysis of reconnaissance photography taken by U-2 spy planes overflying Cuba ninety miles off the Florida coast. John Anderson was a translator on the staff of the Soviet Embassy in Washington blocks north of the White House. His responsibility was to turn the ideologically threatening language from the Kremlin into politically neutral language for consumption by the American diplomatic establishment. Between the two of them they had a complete picture of developments at home and abroad. But their shared knowledge, which could have taken the two superpowers back from the brink of Armageddon, proved to be a lethal mix of deceit and murder.

Christopher Allan Knowles, M.P.A.
Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts


For the past twenty years I have been, first, the Director of the Visiting Nurse Service (VNS) and, then, the Director of Finance and Special Projects of the medical and behavioral health programs, of Martha's Vineyard Community Services which has cared for the residents of the six towns (Aquinnah, Chilmark, Edgartown, Oak Bluffs, Tisbury and West Tisbury) on Martha's Vineyard since 1961. In July of 2005 I was named the Special Projects Manager for Martha's Vineyard Hospital and in December of 2010 I assumed the position of Health Director of the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head (Aquinnah).

While the path I traveled to come to be who, and where, I am today has been a long and winding one, I was fortunate to have arrived on Martha's Vineyard essentially intact, and I am grateful to those I met along the way who helped me to grow and learn. A handful are listed below; the rest know who they are.
