The reader is given the opportunity to come into contact with unique historical events from the world of secret services dating back to the 70s–90s of the 20th century. The author was lucky (or had to, depending on how you look at it) to personally take part or be an “active witness” to most of the events described, and subsequently, thanks to his extraordinary literary talent, to talk about them on the pages of this fascinating book. This publication is not only a collection of autobiographical works, written by a man who devoted many years of his life to the defense of his country, but also a tribute to those who, always remaining in the shadows, raised, prepared, trained, directed, shared invaluable experience, led and covered the people of the front line. This book is a piece of memory of a bygone era, bygone states and, of course, the people thanks to whom our fragile world exists today.
