Apparently the author of the blog responded to some commentary from readers (see link at the bottom of the article ). Apparently some people brought up some questions as to the validity of the book, being as the narrative relies heavily on one former KGB agent's account. The blog author said he would do some more delving into the subject, so I guess in time we will see.
That said, whether the particular book is true or not, his death was still tragic.

Didn't know that Yakov Smirnoff was a fan of HP Lovecraft.
