Description

A Russian nationalist paramilitary organization, made up of former KGB agents, organizes a strange "operation" on Mount Athos, with the aim of stealing valuable relics and transporting them to Russia. The subject of the book touches on important historical events, such as Christianity of the Russians and their relationship with Byzantium, Russia after the Fall, its policy of "descent" in the Balkans and the Mediterranean, the Russian monks and plans to Russify Mount Athos. Despite the fact that the novel has a historical background, the Bulatovich operation and the theft of the religious relics by Athos, are completely fictional, the author claims, although at the end of the novel he records a similar event in the fall of 1992. 197p. bibliographt
