The book sets out the history of the formation and development of special services and special units of Russia for thousands of years, starting with Rurik. It proves the negative impact of the periods of the turmoil, the weakening of the state and its institutions, multiple, often "surgical" reorganizations of special and law enforcement agencies. A special place in the book is occupied by the issue of ensuring the security of the state and its leaders. The authors trace the change in the goals, objectives and methods of work of special services at different stages, they show both achievements and the search for a solution to the problems that arose in the process of historical development.

An important semantic load is carried by the texts of documents cited in the book, some of them were not previously published, as well as an illustrative series that allows visibly presented events
