Our Man in Panama
A “carefully researched” account of the rise and fall of notorious dictator Manuel Noriega—and America’s role in both (The Washington Post). Written by a prize-winning NPR veteran who spent years covering Latin America, this blend of biography, history, and political reporting details the events that lead to the American invasion of Panama. “Describes in considerable detail the fascinating and appalling relationship between Noriega and the U.S. government.

American prosecutors had accused Noriega of trafficking in illegal drugs and money laundering. Not since ancient Rome had one nation launched an invasion of another with the goal of bringing its ruler to justice. But was justice served?" "The Case Against the General is the full, untold story of Manuel Noriega's capture and trial.

Sea of Greed
When the Coast Guard hailed a Gulf Coast shrimp trawler near Cape Lookout, North Carolina on the fourth of July weekend in 1982, the routine stop set into motion a chain of events that ended with the U.S. invasion of Panama, the overthrow of dictator, Manuel Noriega, and the biggest drug bust in America's history. Now, more than 30 years later, the full story is told in a gripping, true life account by the man who brought the drug lord to justice. J. Douglas McCullough, the U.S. attorney who unraveled the Cayman Island Cartel, reveals never before known facts of the case that began on the docks in the historic fishing village of Beaufort, North Carolina, when authorities found a shrimp boat full of marijuana.
