Roadmap to Hell

Sex, Drugs, and Guns on the Mafia Coast

By: Barbie Latza Nadeau

Narrated by: Nicol Zanzarella

From sex slaves to drug mules, The Daily Beast's Rome Bureau Chief uncovers a terrifying and intricate web of criminal activity right on Europe's doorstep.

Caught between Camorra gunrunners selling to ISIS and Nigerian drug gangs along Italy's picturesque coast, each year thousands of refugees and migrants are lured into their underworld, forced to become sex slaves, drug mules, or weapon smugglers.

In this powerful expose, investigative journalist Barbie Latza Nadeau follows the weapons trail, meets the trafficked women trapped by black magic, the brave nuns who try to save them, and the Italian police who turn a blind eye as the most urgent issues facing Europe play out in broad daylight.

just tell it as you seen it

I just wanted the story, told as you seen it. Not told through this unnecessary description of how thick the trees are, or the color of the beads the women wore. The entire story is poured through the filter of a liberal arts degree. Over written is not a strong enough description.
