About the book: 2017 / Laureate of the FSB of the Russian Federation in the field of literature in 2006 and member of the Union of Writers of Russia Evgeny Tolstykh wrote an unusual book about an ordinary Soviet Hero. The fate of Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria is similar to the fate of many, many patriots of Russia, who sacrificed for her sake not only their personal lives, professional vocation, but also, posthumously, their good name. Beria saved our country from the fascist aggressors in the Great Patriotic War and from the threat of the American atomic bombing in 40 - early 50s, but received only slanderous fabrications and false accusations as a reward. Enemies from the party elite did not even dare to try him in an open and fair court - as Beria tried them in the pre-war years. Killed during arrest - without trial or investigation. And then they falsified the investigation, trial and execution. What was he like, the head of a political investigation in the 30s, the organizer of the evacuation of industry in the terrible 41, the creator of the Soviet atomic bomb and ballistic missile in the difficult 40s? Based on documents, diaries, photographs and memoirs, Evgeny Tolstykh painted a portrait of the great Russian patriot Lavrentiy Beria against the backdrop of the bloody and glorious history of our Fatherland in the twentieth century.
