About this listen

You probably heard the stories of Pablo Escobar, the Medellín Cartel, and Narcos. But do you know the story of the equally essential founder of the cartel and the guy who appears in FORBES 1988 World's Billionaires List as a Druglord?—Meet José Gonzalo Rodríguez Gacha

This brand new release by Mafia Library takes listeners deep into the life of one of the most influential and ruthless figures in the history of the global drug trade. Known as "El Mexicano," Rodríguez Gacha was a billionaire kingpin who helped shape the Medellín Cartel's reign of terror during the height of Colombia's drug wars. This book uncovers the story behind his meteoric rise and the violent path that led to his eventual downfall.

The biography reveals in gripping and meticulously researched detail how Gacha, a man from humble beginnings, ascended to become one of the world's wealthiest and most dangerous men. His rise to power was marked by cunning business acumen, strategic partnerships, and a brutal approach to competition, which left a trail of violence and fear across Colombia and beyond.

The narrative also illuminates the vast network of enemies Gacha accumulated throughout his reign—rivals within the drug trade, relentless law enforcement agents, and even former allies who eventually turned against him. As his influence expanded, so did the forces determined to bring him down.

In his final days, the once-invincible Gacha faced a dramatic fall from grace, which sealed his fate and marked a turning point in the Medellín Cartel's dominance. Yet, even in death, Gacha's legacy endured, leaving a profound impact on Colombia's ongoing drug conflict and the structure of international organized crime.

Billionaire Drug Lord is an unflinching look at the life of a cartel kingpin whose story has remained largely untold until now. Perfect for listeners of true crime.

Finally, Jose Gacha's book

Finally, a book about someone other than Pablo Escobar or Griselda Blanco from the
Medellin cartel. It is a very informative book.

WHAT a NARRATOR!

What a great voice for an audiobook about Gacha from the Medellin cartel! It sounds
exactly like the narrator from the NARCOS series. It's a great book, by the way!
