Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Undercover and on the trail of the most wily and dangerous target of their careers, U.S. Special Agents Hipólito “Poli” Acosta and A. J. Irwin chronicle the gripping true story of the U.S. government's covert operation to capture the man behind the largest human smuggling operation in history. And contrary to news reports, the immigrants pouring in are not Mexicans or Central Americans—they’re South Asians. The agents risk their lives in pursuit of Maan Singh, confronting thugs, corrupt officials and hitmen during this perilous chase that plays out across the globe from Quito, Ecuador—Singh’s headquarters—to Guatemala, Panama, England, the Bahamas and the United States. As Acosta and Irwin find out, the tentacles of Singh’s smuggling enterprise extend to places fiercely protected by paid-off police, politicians and diplomats, and Singh always seems to be one warm cup of coffee ahead of his pursuers. The Hunt for Maan Singh pulls back the curtain on Singh's organized worldwide smuggling syndicate while candidly revealing the double exposure of undercover government agents, where inter-departmental rivalries and corrupt officials put Acosta and Irwin in just as much danger as pursuing the criminal mastermind they are sworn to bring to justice. “Informative and entertaining. The complex web of international politics and intrigue may be of interest to those with a penchant for stories about the shadowy underworld of human trafficking.”—Kirkus Reviews
