About the Book

This is a fascinating insider's account from Adriana, a TV war reporter, who survived death threats, bullets on the battled field and kidnaping from the oldest guerrilla group in the world. A vivid history and a series of short stories told from the trenches in the Colombian jungle. This book depicts the war between FARC, Paramilitaries and the Colombian Government, during the height of the conflict between 1998 and 2004. Through these pages, the author honors the innocent victims caught in the storm of war, and offers a tribute to all the journalists who were killed and survived risking their lives bringing the truth to the citizens. Colombia is a country with one of the highest murder rates for journalists in the world.
About the Author: Adriana Aristizabal is a Best Selling author, journalist and a former war reporter from Colombia. In the late 90's she provided live coverage of the war between the FARC and the Colombian Government as she reported from the front lines covering stories of all aspects of the conflict. Adriana worked for RCN, CM& and HORA CERO popular media broadcast firms with wide coverage throughout Latin America. In 2003 she published a best-selling book titled La Guaca de las FARC (English translation: 'FARC's Stash: I Found It') published by Quintero Editores. The book provides a chronicle of a real story about a group of soldiers conducting a routine military operation in the jungle while being extremely careful for land mines, stumbled upon millions of dollars stashed in barrels. They decided to run away with the treasure. Unfortunately, the monies belonged to a terrorist group and so the story unfolds. In 2003 the Congress of Colombia honored Adriana with a proclamation exalting her job as a war reporter. In 2004 Adriana was in danger after receiving several death threats against her and her family from the toughest FARC leaders. As a consequence, and for the safety of her family, she fled after securing a new opportunity to work for the Colombian Consulate in New York City, NY. In 2010 the Council of New York honored her with a proclamation for her support in the field of Art and Culture. In 2014 El Diario La Prensa in New York awarded her as part of their 'Outstanding Women" program for her efforts in the field of art and culture. Currently Adriana is contributor/writer for The Huffington Post and Thrive Global. At the same time, she is a Principal at Concise Marketing & Communications. Adriana is a often called upon as a keynote speaker and from 2002 is a member of RESDAL the Latin American Security and Defense Network.
