Guatemala had really upped it games.
Since iron ore and uranium was discovered, coffee went out of the window.
The small little country was pockmarked with mining sites.
Some say Lake Atitlan was mined by the Mayans which accounted for why it was the deepest lake in the world.
Which got the geologists thinking.
On the slopes of the few volcanoes, they found large reserves of gold and diamonds.
Each week, Guatemala was supplying high-grade steel to the US.
The government was buying up in bulk and dumping off the coast of Louisana to not only counter the encroachment of land from a rising sea but to fortify their reserves.
Australian iron ore was just too expensive and America knew a bargain when they saw one.
Which explained why Guatemala had the best stripper joints that rivaled Sunset Boulevard.
Hell, they even called it Sunset Strip: Hooters, Electric Avenue, Brooklyn Fun Bags.
And I haven't even gone into the drug trade.
Almost a tonne of Bolivian cocaine was being dumped in with the iron ore and deposited off the coast of Louisiana.
The DEA wouldn't see this coming for a long time.
It was just too sophisticated.
They wouldn't think the Guatemalans, always the butt of immigration jokes, could rival the great Pablo Escobar, in terms of smuggling high-grade cocaine to the United States.
