The Germans knew of its existence as early as 1941. Yet, it was only after two years of dogged detective work, lucky breaks, interrogation, and betrayals that they were able to silence the Red Orchestra for good. By that time the damage had been done and the Third Reich was facing extinction. Now, \u003ci\u003eThe Red Orchestra\u003c\/i\u003e offers readers a unique opportunity to learn the complete story of Russia's hidden war against Nazi Germany.
