      The Executioner believes in final justice—so when rumors swirl that someone is trying to revive the empire of Pablo Escobar, the King of Cocaine, Mack Bolan makes it his mission to bring down Pablo’s ghost...for good. But to get to the phantom emperor, Bolan must first eradicate an army of skilled hit men, savage rival cartel bosses and a vicious torturer. The Executioner will need every weapon in his arsenal, but he vows to bring this deadly new drug reign to a fiery, explosive end!
