Mark Bowden is the author of the award-winning Black Hawk Down, Bringing the Heat, and Doctor Dealer. A reporter for The Philadelphia Inquirer, his articles have appeared in Talk, Sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone, and many other magazines.
A tour de force of investigative journalism-this is the story of the violent rise and fall of Pablo Escobar, the head of the Colombian Medellin cocaine cartel. Escobar's criminal empire held a nation of thirty million hostage in a reign of terror that would only end with his death. In an intense, up-close account, award-winning journalist Mark Bowden exposes details never before revealed about the U.S.-led covert sixteen-month manhunt. With unprecedented access to important players-including Colombian president César Gaviria and the incorruptible head of the special police unit that pursued Escobar, Colonel Hugo Martinez-as well as top-secret documents and transcripts of Escobar's intercepted phone conversations, Bowden has produced a gripping narrative that is a stark portrayal of rough justice in the real world.
"The story of how the U.S. Army Intelligence and Delta Force commandos helped Colombian police track down and kill Pablo Escobar is a compelling, almost Shakespearean tale." ( Los Angeles Times )
"Absolutely riveting. . . . Mark Bowden has a way of making modern nonfiction read like the best of novels." ( The Denver Post )
