Кокаиновые короли

A true story about the rise of the Medellin cartel and its leaders. These people controlled half of the cocaine entering the US in the 1980s. 
The authors delved deeply into the subject, understanding firsthand how the modern cocaine business was... born and how a motley crew of hippies and sociopaths, engaged in petty smuggling, turned into kings of the criminal underworld. 
The criminal network, which brought its owners an income of 2 billion dollars a year, eventually became so vast that protecting it required manipulating world leaders, bribing the governments of entire countries, and carrying out brutal reprisals against unyielding crime fighters. 
Individual episodes of this story served as the basis for the films "Cocaine" starring Johnny Depp and "American Made" with Tom Cruise, as well as the popular series "Narcos" and the series "Griselda".
