17 years ago, the legendary submarine cruiser Kursk died. In those days, the whole country was crying in front of TV, no one knew whether the crew would be saved. During this time, many dipped their writing and writing brushes into the topic of the mystery of the death of the submarine cruiser. An official version appeared, which few believed, and “almost secret” investigations and very real versions appeared. The author of this book was “lucky” (or unlucky) to become the true and practically the only witness-journalist of those tragic events. The wind of fate brought her to Vidyaevo in 1999 on the eve of the tragedy. Albina Konovalova was an instructor for working with families in the 7th division - the same one where the Kursk APRK was stationed. She talks about what she saw personally, what she knew herself, heard from relatives, and later she corresponded with many. She also has her own vision of tragedy. Call it another version... but if you tie all the threads together, the version becomes true. The author knew everyone who went on the last trip, among them were her friends. For a long time she could not write about this, trying to forget the time of betrayal, the time of sorrow, the time of violent passions. But I couldn’t - my memory overpowered me. Or the time has come when the pain has grown into strength. Read. Search and find your answers.
