The INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER BY THE SON OF PABLO ESCOBAR

Until now, we believed that everything has been said about the rise and fall of the most notorious drug baron of all time, Pablo Escobar – from books, movies to the cult series "Narcos". However, these versions have always been told from the outside and have not captured the truth from his home's intimate side. Now, more than twenty years after the end of the manhunt that caught him, his son brings us the dramatic truth as we have never seen it before.

This creates a picture of a man full of contradictions – generosity and boundless love for his family, while at the same time capable of the most extreme acts of cruelty and violence. Within a deeply personal exploration of his father, the inner world of a man emerges who was celebrated by some as a benefactor, like a Robin Hood, and by others as the dangerous leader of the hardest mafia in human history, bringing revenge and death to anyone who stood in the way. When Escobar died, his then teenage son vowed revenge. But he soon realized that this meant following in his father's footsteps - something that neither side had ever desired. With this change, he rejected Pablo Escobar's legacy. This story is far from a narrative of a child seeking redemption, but rather a shocking look at the consequences of violence and his attempt to come to terms with it.
