The bloody report of the rise of paramilitaries in Colombia, informed through three character types - a fearless activist, a dogged journalist, and a relentless investigator - whose lives intersected amid unspeakable terror. Colombia's drug-fueled pattern of terror, corruption, and tragedy did not end with Pablo Escobar's death in 1993. Just when Colombians were ready to move forward from the murderous legacy of the country's cartels, a new, bloody section unfolded. In the later 1990s, right-wing paramilitary categories with close ties to the cocaine business completed a violent development advertising campaign, massacring, raping, and torturing thousands. There Are No Dead Here is the harrowing report of three ordinary Colombians who risked everything to show you the collusion between your new mafia and much of the country's armed service and politics establishment: Jesús María Valle, a individuals rights activist who was simply murdered for revealing a dark top secret; Iván Velásquez, a calm prosecutor who used Valle's cause and became an improbable hero; and Ricardo Calderón, a dogged journalist who's still being targeted for his revelations. Their groundbreaking investigations arrived a third of the country's Congress in prison and given new requirements for justice and tranquility that Colombia's market leaders could not dismiss. Taking readers from the sweltering Medellín streets where legal investigators were hunted by assassins, through the countryside where paramilitaries wiped out entire towns, and into the corridors of the presidential palace in Bogotá, There Are No Dead Here is an unforgettable portrait of the valiant men and women who dared to endure the tide of greed, trend, and bloodlust that threatened to engulf their country.
