White Powder - A novel of the CIA and the Secret War in Laos (Paperback)


There is something intoxicating about a secret. There's something terrifying about a shadow war. You may not know much about Laos or the world of WHITE POWDER. You aren't supposed to. Drugs, sex, and murder combined with personal and national agendas to create the hidden world of heroin where governments and drug empires collide. WHITE POWDER is the story of US Army officer, Craig Burton, who became something else. Burton's metamorphosis can't be explained except within the context of others whose roles played a part in the outcome. It's a story of spies from various nations with both personal and national agendas who congregated in Laos and were willing to do ANYTHING to meet their objectives. The end inevitably justified the means. Lastly, it's also the story of Charlotte Sabon, who met Craig Burton, fell in love and was willing to commit murder to keep him. In the end she got both what she wanted and what she deserved.
