About this listen

East Germany, 1985.

It began with a gun, a decision, and the courage to say no. Andrej ran from an abusive father, from a homeland that no longer felt like home. He fled Germany, chasing something he couldn’t name: his roots, his purpose, maybe even his soul. He looked for meaning in Russia, hoping to find what his mother once called Rodina.

But fate had other plans. The friends he trusted were more than they seemed, and to them, honor was just a word. The path he chose led not to freedom, but to the cold, brutal depths of the Soviet Gulag.

There, in the heart of darkness, he was stripped of everything he thought he was. And yet, he survived. He was broken, and then reborn.

This isn’t just a story of escape. It’s the journey of a boy becoming a man. A search for honor in a world without mercy. And a testament to the truth that even in the worst of places, something sacred can still be found.

This was a really compelling read. The narrator was great and the pacing was good. I really felt like I was there in the gulag at times! Looking forward to listening to part 2. Be honourable:)

Couldn’t stop listening!
