"Attentat on Honecker and other Special Events" by Jan Eik is an intriguing book about some of the most famous and mystifying incidents that occurred throughout the history of the DDR (East Germany). The author, together with Klaus Behring, explore the fascinating reality behind the scandals that were carefully hidden from the public.
In the days before the collapse of the Soviet Union, news outlets were heavily censored by the state and only information that suited the political needs of the ruling party was published. As a result, many stories about mysterious deaths, accidents, and crimes went unexplained, despite the fact that these tragedies were not in the public interest. This book addresses the gap in historical records left by the secrecy and falsification that characterized the periods of German history up until the era of democratic reform, inviting readers to consider the roles of myth, conspiracy, and even misdirection in shaping the troubled trajectory of modern history.
