Senor Nice by Howard Marks
Howard Marks was released after serving seven years of a twenty-five year sentence for marijuana smuggling. It was time for a change of career. So he wrote two best-selling books, stood as a parliamentary candidate, applied to become the country's Drug Czar, and embarked on a long-running sell-out series of one man shows.
"A folk legend.. Howard Marks has huge charisma. He sounds like Richard Burton and looks like a Rolling Stone" Daily Mail "Frequently hilarious, occasionally sad, and often surreal" Loaded "Marks weaves a fascinating story spiced with brilliant detail, far stronger than fiction" FHM Magazine
During the mid-1980s Howard Marks had forty-three aliases, eighty-nine phone lines and owned twenty-five companies trading throughout the world. At the height of his career he was smuggling consignments of up to thirty tons from Pakistan and Thailand to America and Canada and had contact with organisations as diverse as MI6, the CIA, the IRA and the Mafia. Following a worldwide operation by the Drug Enforcement Agency, he was busted and sentenced to twenty-five years in prison at Terre Haute Penitentiary, Indiana. He was released in 1995. Senor Nice tells the story of what happened next.
