For thirty years Belgium's port, its diamond quarter and its capital have been doors for Europe's cocaine and other people's money. This book follows a veterinary inspector murdered by men from the cattle trade, ministers convicted over helicopter bribes, a law that let prosecutors settle cases already in court, police reading traffickers' encrypted phones, a drug boss flown home from Dubai, cash found in the homes of European lawmakers, and an investigating judge who wrote from a safe house that her country was evolving toward a narco-state. Covers Othman El Ballouti and his Antwerp network, Franc Çopja and the Capja clan, Flor Bressers and the Kriva Rochem case, Patokh Chodiev and Armand De Decker, Pier Antonio Panzeri and Eva Kaili, Didier Reynders and ING Belgium, and Sky ECC.
