The bloody story of the rise of paramilitaries in Colombia, told through three characters - a fearless activist, a dogged journalist, and a relentless investigator - whose lives intersected in the midst of unspeakable terror. Colombias drug-fueled cycle of terror, corruption, and tragedy did not end with Pablo Escobars death in 1993. Just when Colombians were ready to move past the murderous legacy of the countrys cartels, a new, bloody chapter unfolded. In the late 1990s, right-wing paramilitary groups with close ties to the cocaine business carried out a violent expansion campaign, massacring, raping, and torturing thousands. There Are No Dead Here is the harrowing story of three ordinary Colombians who risked everything to reveal the collusion between the new mafia and much of the countrys military and political establishment: Jesxc3xbas Marxc3xada Valle, a human rights activist who was murdered for exposing a dark secret; Ivxc3xa1n Velxc3xa1squez, a quiet prosecutor who took up Valles cause and became an unlikely hero; and Ricardo Calderxc3xb3n, a dogged journalist who is still being targeted for his revelations. Their groundbreaking investigations landed a third of the countrys Congress in prison and fed new demands for justice and peace that Colombias leaders could not ignore. Taking readers from the sweltering Medellxc3xadn streets where criminal investigators were hunted by assassins, through the countryside where paramilitaries wiped out entire towns, and into the corridors of the presidential palace in Bogotxc3xa1, There Are No Dead Here is an unforgettable portrait of the valiant men and women who dared to stand up to the tide of greed, rage, and bloodlust that threatened to engulf their country.
