Description

The Big White Lie: A Decade of Undercover Work Exposes the CIA's Role in the Drug War. Former DEA agent Michael Levine recounts his 25-year career in undercover work, revealing a decade of scandalous violations of drug laws by U.S. officials. He describes how the CIA became embroiled in the cocaine trade, protecting a South American "Queen of Cocaine" and sponsoring paramilitary operations that led to the current cocaine/crack epidemic. Levine's account is based on his own experiences, including his work in Bangkok and Buenos Aires, where he witnessed firsthand the devastating consequences of the CIA's actions. With a fast-moving and hard-hitting writing style, Levine sheds light on a dark chapter in the history of the U.S. government's war on drugs.
