American Desperado : My life as a Cocaine Cowboy Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

‘The best crime book since Wiseguy’ – Rich CohenA real-life Scarface, Jon was born into the Gambino Mafia family and witnessed his first murder aged seven.

He joined a US Army assassination squad in Vietnam to escape a teen criminal charge, then fled New York to reinvent himself in Miami as the number one supplier of cocaine in the US.

With a crazed bodyguard always at his side, and a fortress protected by mortars, tear-gas cannons, and a gold-fanged attack dog, Roberts was brutally effective at what he did.

With a cast that includes everyone from Jimi Hendrix and OJ Simpson to the CIA and General Noriega, American Desperado is a hedonistic, adrenaline-soaked joyride through the world of Escobar and the cartels, told by one of most successful criminals of all time.
