Summary

In March 2013 BBC Panorama reporter John Sweeney went undercover to gain unprecedented access to North Korea. Posing as a university professor, Sweeney saw the reality behind the world's most secret state. He spoke to people who have seen the horrific dark side of the regime and saw things which have been hidden for years from the eyes of the western world: huge factories with no staff or electricity; uniformed child soldiers working in a zoo; and the world-famous and eerily empty DMZ - the De-Militarized Zone where North Korea ends and South Korea starts - all framed by the relentless flow of regime propaganda from omnipresent and crackly loudspeakers. The book covers the country's troubled history.
