Summary: Turning the Tide: One Man Against the Medellin Cartel
Comment: Great book - an easy read - fast moving - You cannot put it down. If you like politics, romance , water, and airplanes, this is the book for you. The ending is a little weak on what happened to Ledher-Rivas. He was convicted and sent to jail, but apparently he is free now after cutting a deal with the Justice Dept in 1996. This after a conviction to 155 year in prison.

Summary: The Amazing Story of Mr. Novak
Comment: This is an astounding story of Mr. Richard Novak and his involvement in bringing down the cocaine empire of Carlos Ledher. Reading about what he (Novak) went through and overcame is an inspiring story for anyone to read. Unfortuneately, Mr. Novak passed away in January 1997, I was deeply saddened by the loss, mostly because I never got to ask him to tell me the complete story (In this book some details are left out and some are exaggerated). This book is well written and easy to understand, even though it sometimes portrays Novak as an unlikeable character (which was completely the opposite in real life).

Summary: A must read if you've been to the Bahamas
Comment: I grew up cruising on a sailboat in the Bahamas with my dad and remember Norman's key before and after Carlos. I find that it is a real shame that the island is in ruins now when it was once so prosperous. It's too bad that after Carlos was brought down, they couldn't have saved the island's beautiful houses. It's quite a mess now, everything has been picked over and trashed. I find that this book really makes the island come alive. You can walk on the island today after reading the book and picture what it was like back then. It's fascinating and a shame that there were ever drugs involved with such a beautiful island.
