A true story of violence, drugs, human smuggling, and dirty politicians. Ive fallen under the spell of a fabulously infatuating mistress, writes Lee Morgan II in this searing memoir. She is Arizonas beautiful, dangerous borderland, and this is the shocking true story of Morgans many years of combat there. A young Marine taught Morgan, aged 14, how to shoot a rifle. Then, he says, my pseudo big brother went on to infamously enter history books as the Texas Tower Sniper. Haunted by the Grim Reaper, todays Wild West is near anarchy. To know the Mexican people is to love them, writes Morgan, but he hates with righteous rage the crime and corruption hes witnessed on both sides of the border. Discover why Morgan has been called the Serpico of the desert. Climb down with him into a narco-tunnel built by slave labor to smuggle drugs. Consider the huge social and political questions raised by Morgans passionate exposé. Ive been personally shot, shrapneled, slashed, clubbed, burned, and nearly dragged to death, says the veteran lawman, who now lives with a Mexican bounty on his head. Its been a hell of a ride. And its a hell of a story.
