Silk Road Memoir

Curtis Green

A Story of Crime, Greed and Murder

When two government agents investigating Silk Road, an illegal website on the dark web, steal millions from its drug kingpin administrator, an employee named Curtis Green finds himself caught in the middle. Water-tortured and forced to stage his own death, Green eventually helps bring down the two corrupt agents and his former boss. This memoir reveals his thrilling true story.

Curtis Green

About the author

Curtis Clark Green, a high-level employee of Silk Road, was recently served a light sentence by the U.S. District Court in Baltimore for his role in running the site. As a senior website administrator of Silk Road, Curtis was awaiting the sentence since he pleaded guilty in 2013 when the illegal drug marketplace -- and perhaps one of the most successful companies in the world, which grew from $0 to $1 billion in less than 2 years -- was brought down by FBI authorities.
