Synopsis
This true crime tale looks at the so-called "war on drugs" and primarily the effects on the border cities between the United States and Mexico, focusing on the attempts of one DEA agent to investigate the death of his brother, in what seems to be a random crime, but which may have international implications. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003.

Publisher's Note
The acclaimed journalist offers readers an illuminating tour of the drug war, shining light into the dark, troubling recesses of drug lords, high-level corruption, and ultra-violence that respects no borders.

Industry reviews
"Bowden's hard-boiled prose and the generally violent tone are reminiscent of Hunter Thompson and James Ellroy, but this author's gaze remains trained upon fundamental human issues."
Kirkus Reviews  (08/15/2002)

"[The book] is a mature, deeply felt exploration of the hidden connections binding two very different parts of North America, as well as of the ties that bind a family....Is DOWN BY THE RIVER an exposé, a history, a biography, a memoir, an adventure story, a philosophical musing? It is all of those things, reportage on the highest level, and it moves between the categories without hesitation or apology. It is a sort of poetry, too."
New York Times Book Review - William Langewiesche (12/22/2002)
