Through hundreds of interviews with intelligence officials, military commanders, and drug traffickers, Peters traces the flow of billions of dollars generated by Afghanistan's poppy fields.She proves that the fight against global terrorism cannot be won with military might alone; it requires dismantling the criminal empire that finances it.
