Review:

It's Pablo Escobar all over again (Ralph Reyes DEA Chief of Enforcement Operations)

Malcolm Beith risked life and limb to tell the inside story of El Chapo, the notorious drug capo. A novelist could not have presented a more intriguing or compelling tale of corruption, intimidation, murder, blood feuds, life-and-death negotiations, and the entrepreneurial skill of a near-mythic figure. Superb (Professor George W. Grayson)

A brave and terrific headlong trek into the dangerous terrain of drug trafficking (Sam Quinones Los Angeles Times)

Gracefully captures the heroic struggle of those who dare to stand up to the cartels, and the ways those cartels have tragically corrupted every aspect of Mexican law enforcement (Laura Bickford Producer, 'Traffic')
