(NEW! ) The Accountant's Story: Inside the Violent World of the Medellín Cartel by Roberto Escobar #DT1.00aa
(HB/DJ-1st Ed)($32 Amazon)

"I have many scars. Some of them are physical, but many more are scars on my soul. A bomb sent to kill me while I was in a maximum security prison has made me blind, yet now I see the world more clearly than I have ever seen it before. I have lived an incredible adventure.

These are the words of Roberto Escobar-the top accountant for the notorious Medellín Cartel, and brother of Pablo Escobar, the most famous drug lord in history. It cost $2,500 a month just to buy the rubber bands needed to wrap the stacks of cash. The biggest problem was finding a place to store it: from walls and beneath swimming pools to banks and warehouses everywhere. There was so much money that Roberto would sometimes write off 10% as "spoilage," meaning either rats had chewed up the bills or dampness had ruined the cash. 

Roberto writes about the incredible violence of the cartel. Roberto tells all: his brothers' many escapes into the jungles of Colombia, devising ingenious methods to smuggle tons of cocaine, bribing officials and building a personal army to protect the family against enemies sworn to kill them. The Medellin drug cartel was smuggling 15 tons of cocaine a day, worth more than half a billion dollars, into the US.

This is Pablo Escobar's story in the words of one of his closest confidants, his brother Roberto. It's all here -- the brutal violence inside the world of the drug cartel, dealing with the CIA, the problems the Escobars faced against the Colombian mafia, even Pablo's moments of kindness towards his less fortunate countrymen.

Now in his 60s, Roberto, who has served 10 years in Colombian jail for his part in the Medellin cartel, now wants to set the record straight, once and for all.
