Synopsis
The incredible story of an unconventional life During the mid 1980s Howard Marks had forty three aliases, eighty nine phone lines and owned twenty five companies throughout the world. At the height of his career he was smuggling consignments of up to thirty tons of marijuanna, and had contact with organisations as diverse as MI6, the CIA, the IRA and the Mafia. Following a worldwide operation by the Drug Enforcement Agency, he was busted and sentenced to twenty-five years in prison at the Terre Haute Penitentiary, Indiana. He was released in April 1995 after serving seven years of his sentence. Told with humour, charm and candour, Mr Nice is his own extraordinary story.

He sounds like Richard Burton and looks like a Rolling Stone * Daily Mail * A racy yarn with plenty of globe trotting colour -- Christopher Hirst * The Independent * Marks weaves a fascinating story spiced with brilliant detail, far stronger than fiction * FHM Magazine *
