After cocktails and a buffet dinner, Burrough, author of The Big Rich, Forget the Alamo, and The Gunfighters: How Texas Made the West Wild, led a captivating fireside chat with Harp on his debut book, The Fort Bragg Cartel, widely regarded as one of the best nonfiction books of 2025. In it, Harp, a former assistant attorney general and an investigative journalist, examines the gripping story behind the murder and drug trafficking taking place on Fort Bragg.
