Recommended by Publishers Weekly. Afghanistan 1971. The rugged
routes to Kabul teemed with worldwide youth in search of cheap
drugs and enlightenment. With the idyllic dreamers came hard core
criminals. Sent to Kabul to take on the criminals was Federal
Narcotics Agent, Terrence Burke. Working undercover, often without
backup, Burke dismantled smuggling operations in Afghanistan and
India. He used "renditions' to return fugitives like Timothy Leary
to the U.S. and teamed with the Soviet KGB to close a drug route
through the USSR. He challenged criminals in the Royal Palace and
the Afghan Police. The issues he portrays in Afghanistan are still
confronting us today.
