About this listen

 Pavel Coruț was a member of a counter-espionage unit. Then, after the fall of the communist regime in Romania, he started writing spy novels, blurring the line between fact and fiction and introducing a series of conspiracy theories into the public discourse regarding the country's recent past.

Sensing an opportunity, other former secret service members re-branded themselves as spiritual healers and conspiracy peddlers, becoming key players within the emerging conspirituality movement.
