Book excerpt: Sometime after Barry Seal, the smuggler and DEA informant, began hiding his planes in Mena, Arkansas, the line to separate politics from criminal investigations was crossed. Investigators watching Seal knew that unexplained cash was flooding Arkansas. They knew that Seal had cleared a private airstrip in the mountains north of Mena. What they couldn’t understand was why their reports were kept as concealed as Seal’s planes. ALL QUIET AT MENA is their story—and the story of others who fought unsuccessfully to uncover the truth. In writing their stories, it also unexpectedly became partly my own.
