Inside the Cartel

‘Thrilling…has the snap of a Hollywood script…compelling.’ Wall Street Journal

‘Inside the Cartel is proof that truth is always stranger than fiction. In the case of Martin Suarez’s incredible career as an FBI agent, the truth includes being the first to infiltrate Columbian drug cartels and holding the record for the longest time spent continuously undercover. This memoir is a stunning, riveting and extraordinary real-life story of life in the shadows.’ Don Winslow, #1 International Bestselling Author of The Cartel and The Border

‘Martin Suarez’s work and exploits as an FBI undercover agent is legendary inside the Bureau. Both exhilarating and frightening, Suarez’s account of infiltrating and dismantling one of the largest and most insidious narco empires in the world is breathtaking. The tradecraft on display will remind readers of a John Le Carre novel, but, shockingly, it’s all true!’ Robert K. Wittman, founder of the FBI Art Crime Team and New York Times bestselling author of Priceless and The Devil’s Diary

’[A] Revealing and riveting memoir. Suarez… spares no detail in recalling the ins and outs of the double life he maintained for more than a decade as a frontline soldier in an endless war.’ Booklist
