Cocaine...it looks as pure as snow, but it's "Dirty White". Profits are huge and very deadly. New York investment counselor Walter Farr would never do business with a known Mafia boss, or with a major Colombian cocaine smuggler. Farr's reputation is impeccable. But then his teenaged son is arrested as a dealer and the FBI comes to call. His son will get off lightly if Farr enters into a deadly deception - to launder hundreds of millions of dollars in a dummy investment scheme - the biggest sting operation in history. If Farr succeeds, he will trap the biggest dealers in the trade: if he fails he'll pay with his life. And with the lives of those he loves.
