While Lansky built an empire on gambling, the stakes for Kuna were much higher. Northern Burma. A massive caravan winds through the jungle carrying 16 metric tons of opium on 300 mules guarded by 500 soldiers. It stretches more than a mile through enemy territory at the head of the caravan commanding it. Kuna. The hills are suddenly alive with gunfire as commandos pour down into the valley, a rival warlord has ambushed him overhead dive bombers, stripe and tear the jungle apart. Decimating the caravan just another day in the golden triangle. And where is Kuna? Opium heading? Answer next door to Vietnam.
