The most interesting novels about Stalin’s special forces—SMERSH. After the fascists retreated in Crimea, the production of table salt resumed. However, enraged by their military failure, Hitler’s men intend to sabotage the output. Posing as supply agents, the Abwehr drops trained saboteurs onto the peninsula. Their mission is to poison the salt batch ready for shipment and blow up the equipment. SMERSH leadership assigns the task of neutralizing the enemy to the unit of Captain Fyodor Belkin. The counterintelligence agents manage to capture one of the bandits’ accomplices. The information obtained from him forces the captain to urgently change the plan of the entire operation… “Death to the Spies!” (SMERSH) was the short, merciless name of a special NKVD unit that was subordinate to I. Stalin. Created during wartime, it consisted of tested-in-combat, honest, and fearless officers of the Red Army. Everyone feared SMERSH—both fascist agents preparing sabotage within our battle formations and Hitler’s henchmen operating deep in the Soviet rear. The enemy knew: if Stalin’s special forces had been set on his trail, there would be no avoiding fair and swift punishment. The SMERSH special forces series novels—each time an exciting, dynamic plot and new historical knowledge—are action written in a simple, understandable language.
