Showing results for "Control" in Russia

Hidden deep in Russia’s borderlands, Black Dolphin is not just a prison—it’s a place designed to erase. Housing the country’s most dangerous murderers, terrorists, and cannibals, this maximum-security facility operates under a regime of total control and absolute silence. Black Dolphin: Russia’s Most Notorious Prison takes listeners inside a world of 23-hour confinement, psychological erosion, and a justice system that offers no second chances. Through chilling detail and unsparing truth, this book reveals the machinery of punishment at its most extreme.
