It was a David and Goliath-style battle: Australian investigators up against a global organised crime empire. What seemed like an impossible task resulted in the world's farthest-reaching and most ambitious organised crime probes, infiltrating international money laundering streams and exposing the global crime bosses in control of the world's drug trade.
Crime Incorporated traces the small team of investigators from Australia's most secretive and powerful law enforcement agency as they fought the new face of organised crime. This globalised, tech-savvy, multi-national, billion-dollar business empire had tentacles in law and government agencies across the world, from Australia and Vietnam to Cambodia and Canada; from the high-rise developments of Hong Kong to the gambling dens of Macau.
This is the thrilling and personal story of their fight. Told from different angles – the policing operations room, inside a drug lab, behind the door of a senior politician's office and on the beat of a crime reporter – Crime Incorporated exposes what many in power don't want the public to know. It reveals the thrilling and personal struggle to bring the targets down and the political forces that shaped, and ultimately betrayed, their dream.
