Octavo, red cloth (hardcover), silver letters, 231 pp. Very Good+, with lightly rubbed edges; in a Very Good+ dust jacket with light edgewear. From dust jacket: This fast-moving account of a conspiracy within a conspiracy describes the wholesale smuggling of heroin into the United States by light plane from South America. For nearly a decade the Latin Connection to the already well-known French Connection went largely unnoticed. During that time the ubiquitous French-Corsican underworld built a powerful cartel based on the availability of the contrabandistas -- smugglers long known for their dealings in cigarettes and whisky, wigs and Levis. Switched onto heroin, many of them without knowing what their small aircraft were landing at Florida airbports, the contrabndistas found themselves caught in a desperate game for fantastic stakes played out on Miami boulevards and in New York hotels. Eventually they were outmaneuvered by a small by nervy and determined group of U. S. narcotics agents and international intelligence operatives.

For nearly a decade the Latin Connection to the already well~known French Connection went largely unnoticed. During that time the ubiquitous French~Corsican underworld built a powerful cartel based on the availability of the contrabandistas ~smugglers long known for their dealings in cigarettes and whisky, wigs and Levis. Switched onto heroin, many of them without knowing what their small aircraft were landing at Florida airports, the contrabandistas found themselves caught in a desperate game for fantastic stakes played out on Miami boulevards and in New York hotels. Eventually they were outmaneuvered by a small but nervy and determined group of U.S. narcotics agents and international intelligence operatives. The kingpin of the heroin ring was Auguste Joseph Ricord, who worked for the Gestapo in occupied France and made a fortune from his operations in prostitution. Ricord was extradited to the United States from Paraguay after U.S. "narcs" finally broke the case they had been painstakingly building against him, and in December 1972, though not a citizen, he was tried in Federal Court in New York and convicted of conspiracy to smuggle narcotics into the United States. In this book, Evert Clark and Nicholas Horrock, the Newsweek magazine team who watched the story unfold, re~create step by step the crumbling of the Ricord empire that began with the fateful flight north over the Andes of a lone single engine Cessna. Based on exclusive interviews, extensive research, and court testimony, it is at once a horror story and a tale of intrigue and high adventure. From the opening scene in the chill, dark, and silent grounds of Le Paris~Niza motel south of Asuncion, Paraguay, with its miniature Eiffel Tower straddling the driveway, the narrative moves like the chase it is. And the cast of characters ~good guys, bad guys, the girl in the toreador pants~ is the stuff of fact more amazing than fiction.
