Cartel Heat: Deadly Business

By Roger Dean Fischer and Debbie Viguié

When it came to killing, John “The Butcher” Branson had been the go-to guy for the five mafia families for years. An eight-year stint in prison and sharing a cell with Eddie Jaramillo, a Cartel cocaine smuggler who once worked for El Chapo, has him rethinking his life choices. Convinced by Eddie that there is easy money to be made in Miami if the two of them team up, John leaves prison and heads to the Sunshine State, ready to be his own boss for once. Things in Miami are more complicated, though, than Eddie made them seem. Staying one step ahead of the law and their competition requires paying off officials and gaining the trust and support of La Fantasma, The Ghost, a woman who has survived in a man’s world and risen to be the ultimate force to be reckoned with in the drug smuggling game.
Dealing with their competition has left The Butcher with more bodies than ever to dispose of through his own unique methods. Worse, is the growing realization that he is hemmed in on every side. Being hunted by a joint DEA-FBI task force led by two agents with an axe to grind against Eddie and him, threatened by the mafia for interfering in their local business, betrayed by those in his inner circle, and realizing that he and his new business associate share different goals and values has him wondering: is there anyone in Miami he isn’t going to have to kill?

Roger Dean Fischer

Roger Fischer got his first video camera at age of 16 and was inspired to be a filmmaker but the walls of a small town with little hope of anything got taller. He took off to New York City with the help of the Greek mob Boss Spyredon “Spiro” Velentzas and New York Gambino Capo John Gammerano (deceased). These guys were only friends who respected Roger. He has owned several companies in NY/NJ and Miami. Roger perused his career in the film business after writing several movie scripts and producing music videos then went on to produce a documentary and movies using the help with several celebrity friends and his own money. Roger never went to college. He learned everything from reading every book he could get his hands on and on the job. “If you get just one thing out of a 500-page self-help book it will make you back thousand times what you paid for it. Every book is worth its price.” His favorite is “The Writers Journey” by Chris Vogler. “I read it five times and counting” To be clear Roger is not involved with the mafia or cartel in any way or gang associated. He is friends with A-list celebrities, billionaires and business owners all over the world and of course he does have mafia and cartel friends. “I don’t judge anyone. I’m not God” Roger lives with his Wife, Maria Fischer in NYC and Orlando.
