- justaguyhere 7y agoI read this long time ago, it was unbelievable and crazy to my naive brain. I don't know how much of it is true and how much of it is made up, it is definitely worth a read. I remember reading it in one sitting, shaking my head along the way multiple times
- teekert 7y agoMe too! The most memorable ones are the Iran CIA coup of 1953 which is pretty much considered the truth. Torrijos "murder" remains a mistery imho. I'm willing to believe the book... I also love the way the book is written, like an adventure, very immersive.
