Mobsters, murder, betrayal, and revenge are the raw components of
this candid look into the day-to-day life of a modern-day
marijuana smuggler. Told from the viewpoint of an impressionable
young entrepreneur named Jay Carter Brown, the book quickly draws
the reader into the gritty underbelly of the international drug
trade. The story begins with minor-league smuggling scams between
Canada and the Caribbean that soon escalate to multi-ton
shipments of grass and hash from the Caribbean and the Middle
East. All goes well for a time, but as the stakes grow higher,
the inevitable setbacks occur. When Jay teams up with a crusty
old bank robber named Irving, he also inherits a host of other
felons who come out of jail to visit his new partner, ex-cons
such as: Randy the hit man who liked to practise his fast draw in
front of a mirror; Simon, the drug-running pilot; and Chico
Perry, who smoked reefer in his pipe while robbing banks and
shooting it out with the cops. Drug-runners, police, jealous
friends, and rival gangs all contribute to this extraordinary
story told by a young man who became involved at the highest
levels of the drug trade, and lived to tell about it. Smuggler’s
Blues is a rare opportunity to experience life in another world
a world where survival relies on brains, brawn, and a generous
measure of good luck.
