    This non-fiction work delves into the haunting legacy of the Stasi, the secret police of the former East Germany, through a series of personal narratives and interviews. The author explores the pervasive surveillance and oppression that characterized the German Democratic Republic, weaving together the stories of those who resisted the regime, those who worked for it, and those who were its victims.
