Under and Alone (Lib) by William Queen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have seen cable show overviews of this amazing feat of undercover policework done by Queen of the ATF, right up there with Joe Pistone's Donnie Brasco stunt (1976–1981) against the Mafia. Ably narrated by Don Leslie with all the F-bombs of frustration delivered forcibly and the pangs of regret against bringing down some of the "brothers" made comes across well. It is amazing to hear the details on how even two decades ago the Mongols were a tribe so well-populated with psychopaths and configured as a successful criminal enterprise of drug and gun running, extortion, and witness intimidation.
The compelling message of this memoir is the bravery, quick wits, and self-sacrifice required of those that go this far to infiltrate criminal organizations to this extent.
