520    "MAD MEN MEETS THE WIRE IN THIS GRIPPING TRUE-CRIME MEMOIR
       BY A FORMER AGENT AT THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF NARCOTICS IN 
       1960s NEW YORK Before Nixon famously declared a "war on 
       drugs," there was the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. New 
       York City in the mid-1960s: The war in Vietnam was on the 
       nation's tongue--but so is something else. Clandestine and
       chaotic, but equally ruthless, the agents of the Bureau 
       were feared by the Mafia, dealers, pimps, prostitutes--
       anyone who did his or her business on the streets. With 
       few rules and almost no oversight, the battle-hardened 
       agents of the bureau were often more vicious than the 
       criminals they chased. Agent Dean Unkefer was a naive kid 
       with notions of justice and fair play when he joined up. 
       But all that quickly changes once he gets thrown into the 
       lion's den of 90 Church, the headquarters of the Federal 
       Bureau of Narcotics, where he is shocked to see the agents
       he revered are often more like thugs than lawmen. When he 
       finally gets the chance to prove his mettle by going 
       undercover in the field, the lines become increasingly 
       blurred. As he spirals into the hell of addiction and 
       watches his life become a complex balancing act of lies 
       and half-truths, he begins to wonder what side he is 
       really on. 90 Church is both the unbelievable memoir of 
       one man's confrontation with the dark corners of the human
       experience and a fascinating window into a little-known 
       time in American history. Learn the story of the agents 
       who make the DEA look like choirboys"--|cProvided by
