Publisher's summary
Dive into the gritty adrenaline-fueled world of Miami's cocaine cowboys era. Movies glamorized it, but I lived it on the front lines against the ruthless Medellin Cartel. In Cocaine Cowboys Uncensored, you'll experience the obscene wealth, violence and constant threats I faced fresh out of college as a DEA agent in 1979. It's a firsthand account of matching wits with the cartels most dangerous while my life hung in the balance.
If you crave an unvarnished, action-packed look at the drug war's frontlines filled with dark humor, this memoir is a must read. Academic degrees in Pre Law and Economics took a back seat to sheer grit and survival instincts as I learned daily harsh truths of how the drug trade worked and how to survive.
Now retired, Chris recounts those linchpin years when the Colombian drug trade was at its most sinister with the highest stakes.

Determined to pursue his passion for undercover work wherever it led, Stallworth finally lands in Salt Lake City, UT. Once again, he’s an outsider–not only as a Black man on a mostly white police force but also an unapologetic non-believer in a state dominated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. But soon after his first drug bust in the Beehive, Stallworth makes a startling discovery–Bloods and Crips are infiltrating Mormon Country, threatening to turn the deeply conservative community into a hotbed of crime.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2
The Bronx-born son of a Jewish bootlegger, "Joey the Hit Man" was introduced to crime when he was just eleven years old. For the next thirty years he was a numbers king, scalper, loan shark, enforcer, and drug smuggler. He hijacked trucks, fenced stolen goods, and trafficked in pornography. But Joey really made his name as a Mafia assassin, racking up thirty-eight cold-blooded hits-thirty-five for cash, three for revenge.
