Episode description
In the early 1980s, the US Coast Guard are inundated with speedboats, propeller planes and helicopters loaded with ton upon ton of high-grade cocaine. Sleepy towns find themselves on the front line of the war on drugs. Miami goes from quiet southern resort to international front-page news. Behind this tidal wave of white powder? The world’s first female narco-terrorist - a fearsome woman they call The Godmother.
