Pat interviews a Vermont historian about the 1948 Vienna murder of Irving S. Ross, a Hardwick-born U.S. State Department official caught in a postwar espionage swirl. The tale blends the Marshall Plan, Yugoslavia, Vienna’s Russian zone, a nanny-turned-spy, and a family’s decades-long quest for justice and recognition. The narrative also brushes Vermont heritage, government bureaucracy, and remarkable local courage.
