Hunting El Chapo

When Andrew Hogan landed a job with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), little did the hard-charging former deputy sheriff from small-town Kansas know that he would eventually be put on the trail of Joaquín Archivaldo Guzmán Loera, aka El Chapo, the leader of Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel and Public Enemy Number One in the United States. Hogan heads west to Arizona, where he plunges into a series of gripping undercover adventures, each one leading him closer to the most notorious narcotrafficker since Pablo Escobar.
Six years later, as head of the DEA’s Sinaloa Cartel desk in Mexico City, Hogan links up with a crack team of agents from Homeland Security Investigations. Working tirelessly on both sides of the border, they start to infiltrate Chapo’s sophisticated communications structure, probing deeper into Guzmán’s underworld and exposing the drug lord’s cleverly disguised network of interconnected safe houses, one by one. . . . But whom can they trust with their intel? Will the details of their top-secret operation leak back to Chapo before the hunt even begins?
Hunting El Chapo follows Hogan as he leads a white-knuckle manhunt with an elite brigade of trusted Mexican marines, piling into military helicopters, armored pickups and SUVs, racing door-to-door through the cartel’s stronghold of Sinaloa to track down the elusive and ruthless kingpin before he escapes justice once again.
