The Infiltrator

My Secret Life Inside the Dirty Banks Behind Pablo Escobar's Medellin Cartel

By: Robert Mazur

Narrated by: Robert Mazur

Federal Agent Robert Mazur spent five years undercover as a money launderer to the international underworld, gaining access to the zenith of a criminal hierarchy safeguarded by a circle of dirty bankers and businessmen who quietly shape power across the globe. These men and women control multibillion-dollar drug-trafficking empires, running their organizations like public companies. Accountants, attorneys, and financial advisors, their roots run deep in their communities, and they are laundering billions of dollars a year, manipulating complex international finance systems to serve drug lords, corrupt politicians, tax cheats, and terrorists. In 1987, Mazur began infiltrating BCCI, bankers behind the Medellín cartel. He meticulously gathered evidence for years until, during a fake wedding, federal agents arrested over 40 high-ranking criminals, who were all found guilty and sent to prison. Never before told, this is the incredible, true story of how he did it.

I just found it very interesting

Like the the story alot enjoyed it had a lot of facts and the overview was very insightful

Great book but let down by the narrator.

I would give it five stars except the author was not the right choice to read the book. He was generally flat and monotonous.

Fascinating

Enthralling tale of the inner workings of criminal organizations and how their bankers make the money work for them.

our wonderful gov at work

i just kept shaking my head

big brother is watching and he is a legal crook who is a bigger crook than you

Any additional comments?

nice to see my tax dollars pay for these guys (IRS) to live a lie, scam from crooks and get away with it. no wonder they purchased millions or rounds of ammo. they may need it after people read this book.

Astonishing, Alarming and Completely Engrossing

Robert Mazur has served his country above and beyond any job description. His integrity, courage, and deep grasp of the drug and money-laundering world make him a national treasure in my book. This book is worth every minute of readers’ time. My understanding of our country and its politics has forever changed.
