Nikolai Khokhlov, who graduated from school in the summer of 1940, dreamed of being an actor and "making films." And he began to move towards achieving this goal. A year later, his life changed radically. He continued to act, portraying enemies of the Soviet government, German officers and foreigners. But the slightest mistake could cost him his life. And he did not direct films or plays, but murders of enemies of the USSR, taking an active part in his "productions" ... In September 1941, he was recruited by employees of the 2nd department of the NKVD, headed by Pavel Sudoplatov, and became one of the liquidators from Lubyanka. And in 1954, Nikolai Khokhlov fled to the West. In the USSR, he was sentenced to death in absentia. In 1957, he was poisoned, presumably with a radioactive isotope - thallium or polonium, but survived after several weeks spent in the hospital. According to Khokhlov, this was not the only attempt to poison the KGB of the USSR. In his memoirs, he spoke in detail and frankly about his service in the NKVD-MGB-KGB and why he decided to leave the stage of the theater of the "secret war", where he was a "star".
