Narcoland: The Mexican Drug Lords and Their Godfathers This investigative magnum opus takes readers to the frontlines of the 'war on drugs' in Latin America, revealing the mind-boggling depth of corruption in Mexico's government and business elite. Five years of reporting have uncovered the intricate web of collaboration between politicians, functionaries, judges, and entrepreneurs who have enabled the mega-cartels of Latin America. The author, Anabel Hernández, has faced death threats and intimidation, but her reporting has shed light on the true extent of the violence and impunity that has plagued Mexico. With riveting detail, Hernández names those who have collaborated with the cartels, exposing the excesses of power and the consequences of corruption. A powerful and thought-provoking account, Narcoland is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the complexities of the 'war on drugs' and the human cost of corruption in Mexico.
