At the height of his powers, Howard Marks – or ‘Mr Nice’ – was smuggling up to thirty tons of dope from Pakistan and Thailand to America and Canada. How did a nice Welsh boy and Oxford graduate end up with forty-three aliases, eighty-nine phone lines and twenty-five companies to his name, and contacts within MI6, the CIA, the IRA and the Mafia?
Mr Nice is Howard Marks’ staggering story of Britain’s most wanted man: the dazzling ascent and crashing comedown of one of the twentieth century’s most notorious and eccentric drug lords. Audacious, seductive and rambunctious, it is a true crime classic.
