After a first career as a pioneering cybersecurity entrepreneur, he plunged hellbent into the dark side, starting up businesses that generated hundreds of millions of dollars in sales of arms, drugs, chemicals, bombs, missile technology and murder. The criminal empire he built was Cartel 4.0, utilizing the gig economy and the tools of the Digital Age: encrypted mobile devices, cloud sharing and novel money-laundering techniques. Nevertheless, Le Roux gained the attention of the 960 Group, an element of the DEA’s Special Operations Division, that had launched some of the most complex, coordinated and dangerous operations in the agency’s history. They used unorthodox methods and undercover informants to penetrate Le Roux’s inner circle and bring him down.For five years Elaine Shannon immersed herself in Le Roux’s shadowy world. She gained exclusive access to the agents and players, including undercover operatives who looked Le Roux in the eye on a daily basis. She puts you in the room with these people and their moment-to-moment encounters, jeopardy, frustration, anger and small victories, creating a narrative with a breath-taking edge, immediacy and a stranger-than-fiction reality."An investigative masterpiece . . . one of the most intriguing and frightening criminals I’ve ever read about . . . A stunning work." -Don Winslow, New York Times-bestselling author
