<br/><br/> Sam Quinones chronicles how, over the past 15 years, enterprising sugar cane farmers in a small county on the west coast of Mexico created a unique distribution system that brought black tar heroin - the cheapest, most addictive form of the opiate, 2 to 3 times purer than its white powder cousin - to the veins of people across the United States.
