This explosive novel of the drug trade takes you deep inside a world riddled with corruption, betrayal, and bloody revenge.

Art Montana is an obsessive DEA agent. The Barrera brothers are heirs to a drug empire. Nora Hayden is a jaded teenager who becomes a high-class hooker. Father Parada is a powerful and incorruptible Catholic priest. Callan is an Irish kid from Hell’s Kitchen who grows up to be a merciless hit man.

From the streets of New York City to Mexico City and Tijuana to the jungles of Central America, this is the war on drugs like you’ve never seen it.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“The Power of the Dog throws shadows a mile long. Fearless, humane, aesthetically fervent, it’s also passionate, unapologetic, gorgeously written, and unquestionably authentic.” —Dennis Lehane
“A pit bull of a book. Once unleashed, this thriller…charges and attacks without mercy, shredding anyone in its path.” —Washington Post
“An express train of a thriller that cannot be put down…One of this year’s finest novels.” —Baltimore Sun
“Ambitious, dense and gritty…Well-drawn characters and plenty of double-crossing make this a thinking person’s narco-thriller.” —Publishers Weekly
“Porter captures the story’s intensity, deftly using inflection and pauses.” —AudioFile
