THE REAL HISTORY OF THE DRUG EPIDEMICÂ

InÂ The Big White Lie, Michael Levine, former DEA agent and bestselling author ofÂ Deep Cover, leads the reader through a decade of undercover work.
Â
Levine's prose is fast-moving, highly readable, and hard-hitting. He tells how the beautiful South American "Queen of Cocaine" seduced the CIA into protecting her from prosecution as she sold drugs to Americans; how CIA-sponsored paramilitary ousted, tortured, and killed members of a pro-DEA Bolivian ruling party; and how the CIA createdÂ La Corporacion, the "General Motors of cocaine," which led directly to the current cocaine/crack epidemic.

As a 25-year veteran agent for the DEA, Michael Levine worked deep-cover cases from Bangkok to Buenos Aires, and witnessed firsthand scandalous violations of drug laws by U.S. officials.
