En medio de los diálogos de La Habana, Humberto de la Calle reunía sus notas de trabajo en rigurosos diarios, consciente de estar registrando en su misma fuente el curso de la historia. En los márgenes de estas notas, redactaba también sus impresiones y dudas, sus meditaciones, a veces miraba en perspectiva y reconstruía la evolución del proceso de paz o simplemente escribía sobre la cotidianidad de unos días difíciles, donde estaban en juego el cambio de todo un país y la vida de muchos.

In the span of a generation, oil-rich Venezuela spiraled into a dire state of economic collapse. Reporter Paula Ramón experienced the crisis firsthand as her middle-class family saw their quality of life deteriorate. Public services no longer functioned. Money lost its value. Her mother couldn’t afford to buy food, which was increasingly scarce. The once-prosperous country fell into ruin.

In March of 2017, a team of FBI agents arrested Juan Granda, Samer Barrage, and Renato Rodriguez, or as they called themselves, "the three amigos". The trio - first identified publicly by the authors of this book - had built a $3.6 billion dollar business in metals trading, mostly illegal Peruvian gold. Their arrests and subsequent prosecution laid bare more than a corrupt finance firm, though. Instead, Dirty Gold lifts the veil on an illegal international business that is five times as lucrative as trafficking cocaine, and arguably more dangerous.
