Not only had he lived in America for less than a decade, but his strong Scottish accent was unintelligible to many Americans. At age fiftythree, he should have been looking forward to a peaceful retirement rather than a dangerous new career. But when they approached him in 1985, US Customs knew that what he lacked in youth, he more than made up for in experience.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe British Connection\u003c\/i\u003e, Daly, a seasoned sailor, provides a firsthand account of the extremely murky underworld of drug deals in a variety of places, including Florida, the Cayman Islands, Mexico, Colombia, Panama, Belize, and Venezuela as he worked as an undercover agent for five years to help bust Central and South American drug cartels. His detailed story tells how he played a major role in operations involving thousands of kilos of cocaine and thousands of pounds of marijuana. Daly recalls hobnobbing with Colombian racketeers, setting up deals with Cubans in Miami and elsewhere, meeting with senior members of the Medellin and Cali Cartels in their own countries-and living to tell about it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMore than a thrilling memoir of action and adventure, \u003ci\u003eThe British Connection \u003c\/i\u003eexposes the chaos and treachery behind the war on drugs from a man who transported drugs around the Carribean and Latin America and mixed with the world's most powerful and ruthless criminals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Daly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1458203824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781458203823\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Abbott Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Tim Daly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48444963913983,"sku":"9781458203823","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e7a82f39-f712-4c38-943a-8e2e938adcd1.jpg?v=1777215724","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-british-connection-tim-daly-9781458203823","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
