The Border

More about the book

What do you do when borders vanish? How do you stand firm when you’re unsure of your side? The war has come home. Art Keller has spent over forty years on the front lines of America’s longest conflict: the War on Drugs. His obsession with defeating the Sinaloa Cartel's kingpin, Ada?n Barrera, has left him scarred, cost him loved ones, and taken a piece of his soul. Now elevated within the DEA, Keller realizes that in destroying one monster, he has spawned many more, causing chaos in Mexico and fueling the heroin epidemic in America. As he battles to stem the deadly flow, he faces enemies who want him dead, politicians aiming to ruin him, and an administration colluding with the very traffickers he seeks to dismantle. Keller finds himself at war not only with the cartels but also with his own government. His long fight reveals a harsh truth: there are no borders. The narrative spans from Mexico's deserts to Wall Street, encompassing narcos, law enforcement, traffickers, addicts, politicians, and children fleeing violence for a better life. This gripping tale of vengeance, corruption, and justice is a powerful reflection of modern America, offering an unflinching portrait of our times.
