Visually the exterior appearance is exceptional,and even internally,the book is also in an exceptional condition/state of preservation and presentation for a book of it’s age.It is only the minor exterior faults described,that prevents a slightly higher grading.Despite them,it really is an exceptional copy for its cleanliness and brightness and for the author's uncommon signature - particularly for this title.

Cocaine is worth billions of dollars a year to the drug cartels who spread their evil seed across Western society. It causes incalculable misery, poverty and death. And slowly, gradually,its power is spreading.

At his disposal, anything he wants - men, resources, money. He must assemble a team equal to the lawless men who control this deadly trade. A dirty war is about to get a whole lot dirtier.
