Killing Pablo

Présentation de l'éditeur This work charts the rise and spectacular fall of the Colombian drug lord, Pablo Escobar, richest and most powerful criminal in history. The book exposes the massive illegal operation by covert US Special Forces and intelligence services to hunt down and assassinate Escobar.

The book sets out to combine the energy of a Tom Clancy techno-thriller and the detail of award-winning investigative journalism.
