Il n'était pas prêtre, il le lui avait avoué. Quels mots avait-il dits en sautant du bateau ? Elle se souvenait à peine. Sa tête se faisait légère. 'Je te retrouverai', voilà ce qu'il avait dit."

They’re widely known as raiders, pirates, invaders, and savages, but despite their fearsome reputation (or perhaps because of it), Vikings continue to fascinate us today.

This is the cocaine trade. This is how it's done: with hard work and a good system. With coca made into cubes, dissolved in liquid, hidden in marble blocks or inside electric cable. With willing mules swallowing drugs in ovules (they'll be arrested - this is part of the system). With shipments measured in tons. With money in cash, always.
