If
danger, adventure and the promise of an out-of-this-world paycheck offer
you an opportunity you can't refuse in spite of the risks involved in fighting
the drug war on the wrong side of the law, this book will give you the
skinny on what to expect, what to do and how to do it right.
You won't get this kind of realistic info from a criminal lawyer, flight instructor or investigative reporter. This is a how-to book on drug smuggling by someone who has been on the inside for 16 years and made most of the mistakes there are to make. K. Hawkeye Gross tells it like it is: how to get organized, including nailing down a source; procuring fake I.D. and shopping for equipment; how to deal with the money, including doling it out, storing it, moving it and setting up foreign accounts; plus how to prepare for the worst, including a detailed Appendix outlining current state and federal sentencing guidelines and the range of possible penalties for various weights and types of contraband.
The drug smuggler of the 1990s is fighting an uphill battle against a formidable adversary: The U.S. government devoted more than $11 billion to combat the illegal drug industry in fiscal 1992, and it has public opinion and the arsenal of the U.S. military on its side to boot. This book has nothing to do with weapons and shoot-outs; that kind of hype comes from Hollywood and Washington. It is about avoiding mistakes, knowing the opponent, and capitalizing on the one big advantage the smuggler has: surprise.
Until now, nothing like this has been available in an industry where mistakes can cost not just dollars and market share, but years of your life. This book is sold for informational purposes only.
