The dense hills of Sinaloa, Mexico, are home to the Most powerful Drug Lord since Pablo Escobar: Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman.
The Last Narco is essential reading about one of the Most pressing and dramatic stories in the news today--a true crime thriller happening in real time..
The Last Narco combines fearless reporting with the story of El Chapo\'s legendary rise from a poor farming family to the "capo" of the world\'s largest Drug empire.
Newsweek correspondent Malcolm Beith has spent years reporting on the Drug wars and follows the chase with full access to senior officials and exclusive interviews with soldiers and Drug traffickers in the region, including members of Guzman\'s cartel.
Newly isolated by infighting amongst the cartels, and with Mexican and DEA authorities closing in, El Chapo is vulnerable as never before.
With his massive wealth, his army of professional killers, and a network of informants that reaches into the highest levels of government, catching Guzman was considered impossible--until now.
Guzman is among the world\'s ten Most Wanted men and also appeared on Forbes magazine\'s 2009 billionaire list.
