THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER FROM PABLO ESCOBAR'S SON Until now, we
believed that everything had been said about the rise and fall of
the most infamous drug lord of all time, Pablo Escobar - from books
to film to the cult series 'Narcos'. But these versions have always
been told from the outside, only capturing half the truth, and
never from the intimacy of his own home. Now, more than two decades
after the full-fledged manhunt finally caught up with Escobar, his
son brings us the dramatic truth as never before. Here we find a
man of contradictions - generosity and infinite love for his
family; yet capable of the most extreme acts of cruelty and
violence. In a deeply personal exploration of his father, we see
the inner world of a man who was celebrated by some as a benevolent
Robin Hood figure and by others, as a dangerous leader of the most
ruthless mafia organisation in human history, reaping vengeance and
death on anyone that might stand in his way. When Escobar died, his
then teenage son vowed revenge. But Escobar Jr. quickly recognised
that meant following in his father's footsteps-something neither of
them had ever wanted. With his change of heart, he denounced the
Pablo Escobar legacy. This is far from the story of a child seeking
redemption, but a shocking look at the consequences of violence and
his attempt to come to terms with it.
