In Pakistan, a mysterious "Mr. Dennis" aban-
doned four wooden crates of unusual dimen-
sions. In Crystal City, Virginia, police found
a dead body, a spy camera, and a briefcase
filled with cash. In Oakland, California, a
man who claimed to be an agent for the CIA
revealed the details of a terrorist plot. In
Palma, Majorca, a tape recorder silently cap-
tured the most intimate secrets of a world-
wide drug-trafficking organization. So begins
Hunting Marco Polo, a story that is too
fantastic to be fiction.
For more than twenty years Howard
Marks, a.k.a. Marco Polo, was one of the
world s most audacious drug traffickers,
enjoying an apparently charmed life. The
Oxford graduate shipped tons of dope into
the United States and Britain, while bluffing
and bribing his way out of trouble at every
turn. His boast seemed to be true: He was
simply too clever to be caught.
That is, until Craig Lovato, special agent of
the United States Drug Enforcement Adminis-
tration, came on the scene. Lovato, a hunter
by instinct and built like the wrestler he once
was, lived by a simple but stubborn rule:
There s not a crook alive who can t be caught.
And so he set out to prove this belief, stop-
ping at nothing in his obsession to gather
evidence against Marks and his drug-
trafficking combine. Aided by wiretaps, infor-
mants, the DEA, and his conviction that given
enough rope Marks would eyentually hang
himself, Lovato was relentless. His determi-
nation to put Marks behind bars led to an
extraordinary cat-and-mouse game played out
