  • "The seemingly disparate lives of a DEA agent, a drug lord, a call girl, a hit man, and a priest intertwine around a nexus of the drug trade involving the Latin American drug cartels, the American underworld, and the U.S. government."
  • "Mit grossem Tatendrang hat sich der US-Drogenfahnder Art Keller daran gemacht, in die Strukturen der mexikanischen Drogenmafia einzudringen - mit Erfolg. So viel Erfolg, dass die Drogendepots reihenweise auffliegen und die Narcotraficantes die Jagd auf ihn eröffnen. Nachdem sein Mitarbeiter von den Gangstern zu Tode gefoltert wurde, schwört Art Keller Rache und startet einen gnadenlosen, blutigen Feldzug gegen die Drogenbarone. Zu spät bemerkt er, dass er sich damit neue Feinde macht, und die sitzen in Washington. Was als Iran-Contra-Affäre in die Geschichte einging, erlebt Keller als gigantisches Drogen-, Geldwäsche- und Waffengeschäft. Vor die Wahl gestellt, seiner Regierung zu dienen oder seinem Gewissen zu folgen, trifft er eine einsame Entscheidung und stösst dabei auf unverhoffte Verbündete."
