That’s until the DEA makes Kearney an offer: impersonate the late, legendary dope smuggler Bobby Z so that the agency can trade him for one of their own, who was captured by a Mexican drug kingpin. When Tim Kearney, a small-time criminal, slits the throat of a Hell's Angel and draws a life sentence in a prison full of gang members, he knows he’s pretty much a dead man.

Winslow worked as a private investigator for a while until a film and publishing deal for his novel The Death and Life of Bobby Z (1997), enabled him to become a full-time writer. He also traveled to California, Idaho and Montana before moving to New York City to become a writer. While in college, Winslow traveled to southern Africa, something that sparked his love for the continent. Raised in a tiny town in Rhode Island, he attended the University of Nebraska where he earned a degree in African Studies. Don Winslow is an American award-winning, New York Times and International bestselling author of mystery and thriller books.
