About the book: 2016 / This is little known, but during the Great Patriotic War the legendary SMERSH not only defended and “cleaned up” the rear of our troops, but also actively worked behind the front line, in enemy territory. After all, German spies and saboteurs from 130 intelligence units. operating against the USSR, were trained in 60 intelligence schools of the Abwehr and SD - and our military security officers did everything possible to infiltrate their agents into these “personnel forges” and the “holy of holies” of Hitler’s special services. For many years, any information about SMERSH’S BACK-FRONT WORK was kept “behind seven seals." A new book from the author of the bestsellers “How SMERSH Saved Stalin” and “SMERSH without the Secret Classification” sheds light on the most risky and masterly operations of the Main Directorate of Counterintelligence “Death to Spies!” behind the front line, behind enemy lines.
