Interceptors: The Untold Fight Against the Mexican Cartels

Rate this book
Interceptors is an exhilarating ride and front-row seat into the dangerous and harrowing work of law enforcement on America's southern border.

Author Matthew Thomas pulls back the curtain and takes the reader on a rarely seen, eye-witness journey.

Spanning over 29 years, Matthew's law enforcement career and immersive life in the Hispanic culture is an eye-opening, honest, and unprecedented look into the ruthless activities of dangerous cartel activity on our southern doorstep.

From patrol to undercover work with gangs and drugs, Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) to an interdiction team created to thwart, disrupt, and dismantle cartel activities, Matthew has a unique first-hand perspective not covered by the media or found within the politically charged rhetoric of warring political parties.

Interceptors will keep readers on the edge of their seats in a page-turning, binge-worthy read about drug smuggling, human trafficking, and the unspeakable brutality of the Sinaloa cartel.

Buckle up; it's one hell of a ride!

This should be required reading

What a great read that’s hard to put down! The cartels are organized and ruthless, and Matthew Thomas’s team have had to adjust their fighting tactics in ways you only expect to see happen with the military on foreign land. I think everyone should read this book. We need to know how the cartels operate, what we’re doing to contribute to the problem, and what danger our law enforcement has to walk into daily. To all the Interceptors out there protecting us … THANK YOU.

Very interesting book to learn about what's happening at the USA and Mexico boarder from a police's prospective. The fight against all Cartels smuggling operations through Arizona was really fascinating to learn about. Its a great way to see how both sides grow with technology to combat each others strategies.

The content was interesting but the book was just badly written. The author over explained things to the point of being repetitive.
