Evidence of the execution of Soviet citizens, abuse of elderly women and children, documentation of countless cases of the destruction of towns and villages, homes and institutions, and more. "The book tells about Russian blood that was spilled, about the tears of hundreds of thousands of Soviet people, and about the merciless punishment demanded by the Soviet people...". One of the most shocking chapters in the book is the documentation of the execution of all the inhabitants of the villages of Bychkovo and Pochinok - men, women and children, following the villagers' refusal to reveal where the partisans were hiding.
