On Februrary 25, 1991, began the trial of Todor Zhivkov, Bulgaria’s communist king. A dictator of the same calibre as his neighbour Ceausescu, he managed to surviv the machinations of his collaborators. Through the revelations of the trial, an extraordinary wealth of unpublished archives and interviews with some of his closest servants, we penetrate the convulted intrigues behind the power, the manipulation, the political murders; the Security Police and the role of the Kremlin.
