Inside the Cartel

Martin Suarez is not just one of the guys who brought down a top Colombian cartel - he is the guy. A legendary figure in the FBI, he infiltrated the group, starting out as a cocaine trafficker and going on to become its money launderer. This is the critical job: it''s a lot easier to smuggle the drugs in than it is to get the cash out. Using his undercover position, Martin dismantled the cartel and brought its head honcho El Caracol (The Snail) to justice, while trying not to lose himself in this dark, brutal underworld. For the first time, he''s sharing every dramatic twist and turn that led to his success. INSIDE THE CARTEL is a heart-pounding narrative and a fascinating look into the inner workings of the FBI.
