Are you into adrenaline? If you are, you can find your fix in this
book as you follow the adventures of its lead character 'Chance', a
very skilled 'narco-trafficante' while he takes care of business on
two continents. Following him into the jungles of Colombia and find
out what happened to 2,000,000 kg of cocaine that were confiscated
by the Colombian Army. The cocaine was taken from a pole barn of
one of Pablo Escobar's lieutenants named Portofan while the whole
incident was broadcast live on the local TV channels during the
evening news in Medellin. The DEA stationed in Medellin had to be
aware of this broadcast and each and everyone of the individually
wrapped 2,000,000 kilos of cocaine. The bricks of cocaine were
stacked to the 14' ceiling of a 200' long pole barn that sat at the
end of a dirt runway surrounded by coffee trees in the mountains of
central Colombia. That's 2,000,000 kilos of cocaine were talking
about, or 2000 metric tons, which would be without question the
largest drug seizure in the history of the world. A pile of cocaine
that was worth over$20,000,000,000(US) bare-bones minimum on the
streets of Miami, and three times that amount in New York City. And
I also have to ask you, is Pablo Escobar really dead? Books say he
is, and so do many cable-television channel documentaries. The
United States government also claimed that they killed him in 1993
in the city of Medellin. If all this was true, then why did the US
government asked me, Brian (Chance) Chase, the author, in 1997 if
Pablo Escobar was still alive after they had made all of these
spectacular claims about his illegal yet government sanctioned
assassination in 1993. The answers to these questions and much much
more are in this book. A book that can also be described as a love
story of soulmates... trying to survive in the very dangerous and
violent world of the Colombian-based cocaine trade. After I retired
from the cocaine business, I served a 15 year prison sentence on
cocaine distribution, money laundering, theft and exportation of
stolen aircraft, and murder charges. I paid for my crimes not only
by going to prison but also by paying a toll on other very personal
and emotional levels that broke my heart forever, but that I won't
go into just now. It was the idea of two FBI agents that were
involved in my case that I should write this book. They told me
that 'we' had made history, and that I, a gringo, had penetrated
the Cartel faster and deeper than any gringo they had on record at
the time. It took me two or three months of lying in my bunk,
thinking and looking at my jail cell ceiling before I finally
decided to write because I came to the conclusion that I had a good
story to tell. So this is it, 'Air Pirates' my first installment in
the series of 6 (or more) books called 'The Outlaw Chronicles'. One
could call it in 'adventure crime love story saga', or you could
call it something else. But this book is full of true intrigues, it
often becomes bloody and people get kidnapped, seriously abused and
sometime they are even killed. But I also have to say this, despite
the fact that I can almost guarantee that this book will reach into
the depths of your psyche and grab hold of your heart and squeeze
until you cry.... I also never had a bigger 'blast' living out
these adventures, in all my life.
