Description

The Real Mr. Big tells the story of Jesus Ruiz Henao, a Colombian immigrant who built a sophisticated drug trafficking enterprise that earned him law enforcement's description as "the Pablo Escobar of British drug trafficking". Born in 1960, Ruiz Henao grew up poor but ambitious, and he moved to London in 1985 to pursue his dream of wealth.

Despite holding down respectable jobs, Ruiz Henao kept a low profile while building his network, which extended from Colombia to Spain and Europe, and eventually the UK. For years, he stayed one step ahead of law enforcement, making over £1 billion in just ten years. However, his success came at a great cost, and by 2003, he had made a fatal mistake that would lead to his downfall.

This book is a gripping account of Ruiz Henao's rise and fall, co-written with bestselling author Ron Chepesiuk. It offers a unique insight into the world of organized crime and the true story behind one of the UK's most notorious drug traffickers.
