Dead Paradise by Stuart Woods

The decade long search for one of the world's most dangerous men, Joaquin El Chapo Guzman led Mexican and U.S., authorities on a bizarre journey that cemented his infamy in history. Mired in violence and lore, the leader of the Sinaloa cartel escaped prison in 2001 and went on a thirteen year terror spree that ended on February 22, 2014. Lost behind the headline grabbing details is a story of a man's journey of redemption which provided the facts eluding authorities necessary to capture the monster. Marcos Killa Munoz, a former drug dealer and DEA informant, stepped out of the shadows and provided the logistics of the Sonora drug corridor that was the key to ending the reign of terror. While the world waited, one man stepped out the past and helped make history. Woven into the fast paced investigation of multiple agencies' are the interviews and components that combined to create a path to Guzman's final bastion. The DEA steps to the forefront of the investigation and uses Marco's information as a scythe to slice through the red tape of international politics. A journey of human frailty and emotions that became the catalyst for change in the seething world of drugs and violence. His obdurate refusal to remain buried in the past is an amazing story that will never make the headlines. Long forgotten, the Ghostman is back with a vengeance.
