READERS CAN''T GET ENOUGH:
''A true page turner that reads like an action thriller . . . This book is a MUST READ for everyone!'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

''Well-crafted . . . reads like a fiction drama, and explains the illegal gold trade in a way that is easy for a lay person to understand.'' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
__________
All that glitters is not gold. Gold is the new cocaine - and it''s just as lucrative, dangerous, and destructive.
Dirty Gold is a searing expose on the booming gold mining industry and destruction on the land and people of Latin America. It looks closely at a small US firm in Miami that helped transform the city into the nation''s No.1 importer of gold into the United States.
The book follows the meteoric rise and fall of a group of drug traders known as ''the three amigos'' who laundered narco money through gold illegally brought into the US and raked in millions before they were caught. Whilst they were making their millions, the humanitarian situation in Colombia, Peru, and many other countries deteriorated dramatically.
----------
