Description - El Sicario by Charles Bowden

El Sicario is the hidden face of Americas war on drugs. He is a contract killer who functioned as a commandante in the Chihuahua state police, was trained by the FBI, and for twenty years kidnapped, tortured, and murdered people at the behest of Mexican drug cartels. Charles Bowden first encountered El Sicario while reporting out the book Murder City. As trust between the two men developed, Bowden bore witness to El Sicarios unfolding confession and decided to tell his story. He speaks as a free man and of his own free will; there are no charges against him. His is a lonely voiceno one with his background has ever come forward and talked. He is the truth no one wants to hear.
