About this ebook
Kathryn Bonella lifts the lid on Bali's nightmarish narcotics underworld.
Among the island's drug dealers 'It's snowing in Bali' is code that the south-east Asian paradise is full of cocaine. For the men who run the country's drug empires, it's time to get rich and party hard.
Snowing in Bali is the story of the drug trafficking and dealing scene that's made Bali one of the world's most important destinations in the global distribution of narcotics. Kathryn Bonella, bestselling author of Hotel K, has been given extraordinary access into the lives of some of the biggest players in Bali's drug world. She charts their rise to incredible wealth and power, and their drug- fuelled lifestyles: filled with orgies, outrageous extravagance and surfing.
From the highs of multi-million dollar deals to the desperate lows of death row in an Indonesian high security jail, Snowing in Bali is a unique, uncensored insight into a hidden world.

A very well-written book! I couldn't stop reading it! I love true crime stories like this, and sadly many of these news are not easily found in the internet because Balinese newspapers don't put up archives of past articles. The author really kind of made sure that the people with changed names are not easily found through Google! :')

In my opinion, this is the best book written by the author. Never got bored when I read this book for a second and a third time. The drug dealer boss live like a sultan and can get anything they heart desired. I feel the tense when I read the part that the drug smugglers is about to land at the airport and they ready to face an immigration and a customs. Heaven and hell are so close for them.
