Once victorious, climb the ladder and free the soul, then exit the room through the northeastern doorway. Another arena fight will begin - note that you can utilize the crystals in the corners of the room if you prefer attacking with magic. Once you’ve hit all 4 cubes, head through the gate and continue northeast. Note that the tiles the cubes are on don’t fall, and so are “safe” zones. Hit the first cube here, then run counter-clockwise, avoiding the laser and hitting the cube that’s lit. Ignore the puzzle in the next room for now, and exit via the southeastern doorway. Run across the tiles in the next room quickly, or you’ll fall! This time, head up the stairs to the south and leave the room via the southwestern doorway.

Magisterial in scope and intimate in detail, Secret City will forever transform our understanding of American history. Among other revelations, Kirchick tells of the World War II–era gay spymaster who pioneered seduction as a tool of American espionage, the devoted aide whom Lyndon Johnson treated as a son yet abandoned once his homosexuality was discovered, and how allegations of a “homosexual ring” controlling Ronald Reagan nearly derailed his 1980 election victory. Cultural and political anxiety over gay people sparked a decades-long witch hunt, impacting everything from the rivalry between the CIA and the FBI to the ascent of Joseph McCarthy, the struggle for Black civil rights, and the rise of the conservative movement.

Utilizing thousands of pages of declassified documents, interviews with over one hundred people, and material unearthed from presidential libraries and archives around the country, Secret City is a chronicle of American politics like no other. In the fevered atmosphere of political Washington, the secret “too loathsome to mention” held enormous, terrifying power.
