Specificatii
The true story of super-criminal Jon Roberts, star of the
documentary Cocaine Cowboys. American Desperado is Roberts'
no-holds-barred account of being born into Mafia royalty,
witnessing his first murder at the age of seven, becoming a
hunter-assassin in Vietnam, returning to New York to become--at age
22--one of the city's leading nightclub impresarios, then
journeying to Miami where in a few short years he would rise to
become the Medellin Cartel's most effective smuggler. But that's
just half the tale. The roster of Roberts' friends and
acquaintances reads like a Who's Who of the latter half of the 20th
century and includes everyone from Jimi Hendrix, Richard Pryor, and
O.J. Simpson to Carlo Gambino, Meyer Lansky, and Manuel Noriega.
Nothing if not colorful, Roberts surrounded himself with beautiful
women, drove his souped-up street car at a top speed of 180 miles
per hour, shared his bed with a 200-pound cougar, and employed a
6-6- professional wrestler called -The Thing- as his bodyguard.
Ultimately, Roberts became so powerful that he attracted the
attention of the Republican Party's leadership, was wooed by them,
and even was co-opted by the CIA for which he carried out its
secret agenda. Scrupulously documented and relentlessly propulsive,
this collaboration between a bloodhound journalist and one of the
most audacious criminals ever is like no other crime book you've
ever read.
