The Last Cowboy: The True Story Of One Of DEA'S Most Decorated Undercover Agents (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798218560881)

The Last Cowboy is the true story of an undercover agent with unconventional methods who became one of the most highly decorated agents in the history of the US Drug Enforcement Administration. At the heart of this story are the remarkable actions of the last of an aging breed of hard-charging, rough-riding agents who risked it all to protect the innocent, from his raucous beginnings as a street cop in Texas, to $85 million undercover deals with the most deadly of all Mexican drug traffickers.

The Last Cowboy culminates in the hunt for the terror cell that killed five Afghan CIA counterparts. Disobeying a direct order, the agent tackled a suicide bomber on the streets of Kabul, which saved the lives of countless American soldiers and crushed the suicide bomber terror cell in the aftermath. This is the true, hard-hitting story of the last "cowboy" to serve with DEA.

The Last Cowboy is not the usual "hero cop saga". The lighthearted voice of this undercover agent permeates the pages of this manuscript. The reader can easily imagine sitting around a campfire with this cowboy agent as he shares heart-stopping adventures over a warm cup of joe. Hard-hitting, yet interspersed with splashes of waggish cowboy yarns, this page-turner captivates the reader's attention.
