Venezuelan Gold (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781936539901)

Kelly Castellano, a disgruntled former CIA agent and now chief of police for a small coastal Texas town, finds the body of his friend, CIA agent Jose Carrillo. Kelley is reluctantly recruited to find Carrillo's murderer. Posing as a not-to-honest representative of an American oil services company, Kelley's search soon leads him to Venezuela to investigate the Colombian Metillo drug cartel and its attempts to smuggle drugs into the U.S. by surreptitiously taking control of the Venezuelan national oil company. But not only does Kelley discover an insidious plan of corruption of Venezuelan and US politicians, but also uncovers the Venezuelan subsidiary of China's national oil company attempt to acquire a contentious oil lease site in the jungles of eastern Venezuela. Kelley soon finds that both the Metillo cartel and the Chinese are trying to kill him before he discovers too much.
