The Destroyer 004 - Mafia Fix
Warren Murphy, Richard Sapir
That's what it was. The horse was from Turkey. Big horse. Very valuable. Coming into the U.S. from Marseilles. The word had leaded out, a lot of devotees were awaiting the arrival of this splendid white beast.
What kind of horse was this? A beast worth more than its weight in gold? Experts recognized it as diacetylmorphine. Aficionados of the sport called it heroin.
In "nickel" glassine bags the diluted stuff went for $5. Once in a while a few slices would slip into the country--at about $15,000 per slice. Very profitable, very beastly.
But that's small stuff. The race was the big one. Biggest ever. Imagine fifty tons of heroine--four trailer trucks full!
New Jersey was interested. The White House was interested. So was the United Nations. And, of course, the Mafia.
OK, the Destroyer was interested, too. Gonna be one helluva horse race!
