In a David-and-Goliath-style battle, this account shares the never-before-told story of the ongoing efforts of Australia’s most secretive and powerful law enforcement agency to topple the new face of organized crime. Exposing the tech-savvy, billion-dollar empire with tentacles reaching across the world—from outlaw motorcycle gangs and powerful Asian crime syndicates to law and government agencies—this book chronicles criminal, law enforcement, and political tactics through the eyes of the major players: the criminal investigators, the international crime bosses, the senator, the drug cook, and the investigative journalist.
