About this listen

COCAINE COWBOYS tells the story of Ireland's love affair with cocaine since it first washed ashore on Cork's rugged coast to the billion-euro trade it has become. From Ireland's first cocaine lord and his attempts to establish a direct route from Miami to Dublin to the modern-day violence that led to the brutal dismemberment of teenager Keane Mulready Woods, the book will follow the stories and the increasing chaos that has engulfed those desperate for a slice of this modern day gold rush. Along the way it details how cocaine has woven bonds between high society and the underworld, tracing the deal that killed the model Katy French and detailing how the Kinahan Cartel and Ireland's one time richest and most influential family joined forces to wash dirty money. COCAINE COWBOYS is the definitive tale of the rise of Colombia's most famous export to become the drug of a nation.

What to say. I follow Nicola’s Crime World podcast, have read/listened to her previous books and love this new addition. I love her turn of phrase and no BS approach. I’m sure she’s had to face some real world challenges from the ‘characters’ she’s covered (especially if her appearance in the recent Netflix Cyberbunker film is anything to go by) but she perseveres. I cannot wait for more! Well done Nicola

Nicola is the best crime journalist I follow
