The recollections of the exploits of an undercover federal narcotic agent working in many dangerous environments and role playing with extremely dangerous characters. The agent interacts with many characters, each a very interesting personality that is a story in itself. He negotiates undercover with former World Heavyweight Champion Charles "Sonny" Liston for the proposed purchase of cocaine and has an unpleasant encounter with movie actor John Wayne. The undercover agent works in a drug business where homicide, arson, mayhem, kidnapping, robbery, assaults and terrorism are tricks of the trade; where the wrong word, move or mere suspicion often erupts into violence.
