This sub-series comprises records of June Callwood's book about Emma Woikin, a Canadian government cipher clerk, convicted of passing state secrets to the Soviet Union as a result of the Igor Gouzenko revelations.

P. Erichsen-Brown, Emma's lawyer at trial. There is also a scenario for a screenplay based on the book, 32 black and white photos taken by Callwood in Saskatchewan for the book, fan mail, and clippings of reviews and articles about the book.
