About this title

From the Author:

CrossFire and its characters are entirely fictional. But the situations, settings, attitudes, and opinions in its pages, as well as the details of narcotrafficking and the anti-narcotics effort, are as accurate as careful research and personal acquaintance can make them. The drug war in Bolivia is an ongoing drama of real people in a context of greed and addiction, unimaginable wealth and economic hardship, conflicting political ideologies, right and wrong motives--and of occasional simple heroism as well. CrossFire is the story of that drama.

But beyond the political and literary value of the book, CrossFire carries a message that touches all our deepest longings. A message of a loving Creator God who yearns over His children who have lost their way, calling for them to return to Him. What do you do when you hit rock-bottom and God seems a universe away? Do you run towards Him--or away?
