Description
Juarez, Mexico: Eight members of a DEA assault team sneak across the borders with one mission objective--capture Amado Carrillo Fuentes, kingpin of the powerful Juarez Cartel. But something goes wrong and the international repercussions are huge. Palm Beach, Florida: Dan Larsen is a sportfishing captain with a secret. Working directly with the CIA, Larsen takes off for Cancun and the Yucatan Peninsula. But while his friends troll the waters off Puerto Aventuras for billfish, Larsen is hunting something else... Puerto Aventuras, Quintana Roo, Mexico: In the heart of the Mexican Riviera, ordinary people can relax in a tropical paradise. But under it all is an evil subculture tainted by laundered drug money and infected with violence and corruption that leaves no one untouched. In a groundbreaking blend of fact and fiction based on personal experience, author Piet van Alder exposes the obstacles the most powerful nation on earth faces in its war on drugs. Substance abuse, corruption, lack of funds and poorly equipped law enforcement agencies that struggle to do battle against the Mexican and Colombian drug cartels. Dropback takes the reader on a thrilling ,thought-provoking journey from the halls of the CIA through the world of serious sport-fishing and into the hearts of the men who fight the never-ending and dangerous war against the drug scourge that is ruining America and spreading throughout the world. - from Amzon
