Pablo Escobar sigue siendo un personaje legendario y 30 años después de su muerte, todavía hay muchos secretos de su vida que siguen sorprendiendo. Este libro recoge varios de ellos. Hace 30 años, Pablo Escobar fue cazado porque violo el secreto que lo hacia ver invencible: hablar poco y muy corto por teléfono. El 2 de diciembre de 1993 habló mucho y muchas veces y por eso fue localizado por el bloque de busqueda en Medellín. Ese día, todo lo que dijo era escuchado por el autor de este libro. Fue el quien diseñó la estrategia para acorralar a Escobar a través de su lado más flaco: su famila.
