The electrifying true story of Robert Mazur's life as an undercover
agent who infiltrated one of the world's largest drug cartels by posing
as a high-level money launderer -- the inspiration for the major motion
picture The Infiltrator.
Robert Mazur spent years undercover infiltrating the Medellín Cartel's
criminal hierarchy. The dirty bankers and businessmen he befriended --
some of whom still shape power across the globe -- knew him as Bob
Musella, a wealthy, mob-connected big shot living the good life.
Together they partied in $1,000-per-night hotel suites, drank bottles of
the world's finest champagne, drove Rolls-Royce convertibles, and flew
in private jets. But under Mazur's Armani suits and in his Renwick
briefcase, recorders whirred silently, capturing the damning evidence of
their crimes.
The Infiltrator is the story of how Mazur helped bring down the
unscrupulous bankers who manipulated complex international finance
systems to serve drug lords, corrupt politicians, tax cheats, and
terrorists. It is a shocking chronicle of the rise and fall of one of
the biggest and most intricate money-laundering operation of all time-an
enterprise that cleaned and moved hundreds of millions of dollars a
year. Filled with dangerous lies, near misses, and harrowing escapes,
The Infiltrator is as bracing and explosive as the greatest fiction
thrillers -- only it's all true.
