Hello Freduk-ga,

The title for the Book in Russian is 
Pod pseudnimom Dora. Vospominaniia sovetskogo razvedchika

This translates to:
Under the pseudonym Dora: Memoirs of a Soviet spy

This was published by Voenizdat Publishing in 1973.

The only copy I found was in a Professor?s private collection, listed here.
http://www.history.neu.edu/fac/burds/extra.htm 

I also found another version by Ural Press in Russian first published
in 1992 (now out of print) as well of the book
http://www.eastview.com/xq/ASP/sku=A0157672/f_locale=/Rado/Shandor/Perm'/Russia/Russian/qx/russian/books/product.asp

They will find a copy for you starting at $50.00 for a book search.

If this answer requires further explanation, please request
clarification before rating it, and I'll be happy to look into this
further.

Nenna-GA, I thank you finding the title of the book, and the name of
the publisher. But the professor's Web site was iffy to say the least.
 The $50 search fee by Eastview does seem steep, when the book is
available through the Melvyl catalog at the California
Libries(University)
Thank you for your help.
All The Best,
Freduk-ga
