Few names become symbols of an entire era. Pablo Escobar is one of them.
To some, he is a generous benefactor who builds homes, football pitches and schools for Colombia's poorest communities. To others, he is the ruthless leader of a criminal empire responsible for bombings, assassinations and unimaginable suffering. Between those two extremes lies a far more complex story.
This is a journey into a Colombia shaped by violence, ambition and the global cocaine trade. It is the story of a young man who grows up surrounded by poverty, discovers extraordinary opportunity in the criminal underworld and builds a fortune unlike anything the world has seen. But as his wealth grows, so too does the cost—not only for Pablo Escobar, but for an entire nation.
This is the rise, reign and fall of the man who becomes known as the King of Cocaine.
