"The
2015 Readers' Favorite International Book Award Contest features thousands of
contestants from over a dozen countries. American (Greensboro, North Carolina) true
crime author MayCay Beeler has placed in this year’s contest.
“Readers’ Favorite is proud to announce that Buccaneer, the Provocative Odyssey of Jack
Reed- Adventurer, Drug Smuggler and
Pilot Extraordinaire by MayCay Beeler and Jack Carlton Reed is a Finalist
in the Non-Fiction - Biography category in our 2015 International Book Award
Contest.”
Buccaneer is the gripping international true crime
tale about a historic criminal case with a surprising North Carolina
connection. When Greensboro Pilot/Journalist MayCay Beeler contacted convicted
cocaine cartel pilot Jack Reed in prison for research on a documentary she was
producing, she had no idea she would become his co-author and a character in
this infamous inmate’s life story and twist of fate ending.
“He refused to talk to cops and press- until me. In our
book, which was a collaborative work at
the end of Reed’s life, Reed breaks his silence about his alleged role in Pablo
Escobar’s Medellin Drug Cartel and his stunning punishment for refusing to
snitch on best friend/drug lord, Carlos Lehder, in the courtroom. This
biography features shocking judicial misconduct, the longest running drug trial
in U.S. History, and the first drug lord extradited to the United States. It’s
a pilot's provocative journey from all-American boy to drug smuggler to
Robinson Crusoe then prison inmate. Jack Reed was a nonviolent offender
who became the victim of a tragic judicial sentencing mistake. His
true story will stun you. It has never been given to any
other journalist.”- MayCay Beeler
