The cartel

Winslow, Don, 1953-2015
Books
2004. El Federación, the most powerful drug organization in the world, has been exploded and the Mexican drug trade has settled out into several cartels that exist in a state of tenuous accord. The patron of El Federación, Adán Barrera, is in solitary in a San Diego prison. Art Keller, the DEA agent who put him there - and killed his brother and his uncle - is living at a New Mexican monastery, tending bees, the solitude and simple truths of the place a powerful antedote to his former 'life of lies'. But when Barrera negotiates a deal that lets him serve out his time in a Mexican prison, a series of events is set off that undermines whatever accord existed between the cartels, and a war of unprecedented scale and viciousness erupts.
