Description
"On January 13, 1953, a vast conspiracy among Jewish doctors in the USSR to murder Kremlin leaders was revealed to the world. The Doctors' Plot, as it was called, was Stalin's last crime." "In the fifty years since Stalin's death, several theories have emerged about the Doctors' Plot. Did Stalin invent the conspiracy or was it engineered by his subordinates to eliminate Kremlin rivals? Did Stalin intend a purge of all Jews from Moscow, Leningrad, and other major cities, leading to a Soviet Holocaust? How was this plot related to the Cold War then dividing Europe, and to the hot war in Korea? Was the Doctors' Plot connected with Stalin's fortuitous death?" "Jonathan Brent and Vladimir Naumov used Naumov's exclusive appointment by Gorbachev to explore top-secret documents from the KGB, presidential archives, and other archives to probe the mechanism of one of Stalin's greatest intrigues. As page-turning as a thriller, Stalin's Last Crime unveils the incredible story of the Doctors' Plot." --Book Jacket.
