The world under the high. The whole truth about the international drug business

From each page of this book, the spirit takes on: in front of you is an exhaustive and exorbitant bloody story of drug trafficking - from opium wars and assassins to Darknet and Legaliz. Having spent a year and a half in the London prison, the former dragdler of Russian descent Nika Vorobyov is released with the firm intention of finding out how the war with drugs is arranged and why millions of people, despite the risk, find themselves on the other side of the law - and where these very laws came from. He goes on a trip around the world - Colombia, Mexico, Russia, USA, Italy, China, Afghanistan, Philippines, Chile, Japan, the Netherlands, the UK - to talk with hundreds of people involved in the shadow economy.

Together with Vorobyov, the reader will visit his brother El Chapo at home, reaches the Yamaisky bandits, corrupt Iranian policemen, Afghan peasants, Yakuza and learns everything about the work of employees of national and international structures struggling with the turnover of prohibited substances. Call him a drug polo. And welcome to the world under the high.
