The untold story of an indigenous people running the worlds mightiest narcostate and Americas struggle to thwart them.In Asias narcoticsproducing heartland, the Wa reign supreme. They dominate the Golden Triangle, a mountainous stretch of Burma between Thailand and China. Their 30,000strong army, wielding missiles and attack drones, makes Mexican cartels look like street gangs.Wa moguls are unrivaled in the regions $60 billion meth trade and infamous for massproducing pink, vanillascented speed pills. Drugs finance Wa State, a bona fide nation with its own laws, anthems, schools, and electricity grid. Though revered by their people, Wa leaders are scorned by US policymakers as vicious kingpins who poison our society for profit.In Narcotopia, awardwinning journalist Patrick Winn uncovers the truth behind Asias top drugtrafficking organization, as told by a Wa commander turned DEA informant. This gripping narrative shreds drug war myths and leads to a chilling revelation: the Wa syndicates origins are smudged with CIA fingerprints.This is a saga of native people tapping the power of narcotics to create a nation where there was none before and covert US intelligence operations gone wrong.
