Underworld: The New Era of Gangs in New Zealand

From the author of the bestselling books about the escalation of organised crime and gangs in New Zealand.

The brutal execution of an innocent man. The undercover DEA agent who fooled the Hells Angels in a 400kg cocaine plot. The brutal execution of a not-so innocent man. The never-ending quest to bring down New Zealand's most wanted gangsters. These stories read like a crime novel - delving down into a parallel universe that many do not know even exists: The Underworld.

Jared Savage's first book Gangland traced the evolution of the methamphetamine drug trade in New Zealand from the late 1990s to 2020. His second book, Gangster's Paradise, focused on stories about the escalation of organised crime: more drugs, more guns, more money. Underworld follows that pattern; but now the situation is now even more dangerous. The stakes even higher.
