DESCRIPTION

"Manhunters is a riveting account of two brave DEA agents who put their lives, along with their families lives, on the line to fight the war on drugs in the US and Colombia. A must read on the takedown of Pablo Escobar and the part they played in the investigation." - Joe Pistone, former FBI special agent, a.k.a. Donnie Brasco, New York Times best-selling author 

For the first time, legendary DEA operatives Steve Murphy and Javier F. Peña tell the true story of how they helped put an end to one of the world’s most infamous narco-terrorists in Manhunters: How We Took Down Pablo Escobar - the subject of the hit Netflix series, Narcos. 

Manhunters presents Steve and Javier’s history in law enforcement, from their rigorous physical training and their early DEA assignments in Miami and Austin to the Escobar mission in Medellin, Colombia, living far from home and serving as frontline soldiers in the never-ending war on drugs that continues to devastate America.
