Claw of the Dragon - Paperback

by Michael S. Vigil (Author)

Mike Vigil rose from humble beginnings in the Northern New Mexico village of Española to lead America's effort against treacherous international drug traffickers and cartel bosses. He is a legend in the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and far beyond. From Mexico to Honduras, the Caribbean to Afghanistan, Vigil's name is celebrated in far-flung regions of the world for his ability to bring disparate law enforcement and military entities together to take down some of the most dangerous criminals on the planet. In a career spanning more than three decades, Vigil faced down death many times and was known for being "first through the door" on operations that led to thousands of arrests and seizures of tons of dangerous drugs and millions of narco dollars. After his retirement from the DEA, Vigil embarked on a new career as an author and authority on the ever-evolving world of the increasingly violent drug cartels. His fast-paced novels have the clarion ring of authenticity, and for good reason: He's been there and done that. From foot soldier to field general, and now a successful author and top authority on the continuing campaign against drug trafficking in America and around the world, Mike Vigil's life is a testament to the good that can be accomplished against formidable odds by one brave man.
