The Cartel by Don Winslow


This gritty realistic crime novel pits American agent Art Keller against the old—but not retired—crime boss Adam Barrera. The Mexican cartels are ruthless and new blood-thirsty factions are vying for a piece of the action. Well-researched, with outstanding characters that are so intimately drawn, that I’d say it’s like The Godfather, but so much better! Superb!
