MUMBAI: Universal has set George Mastras to adapt the Dean Unkefer book ‘90 Church: the true story of the narcotics squad from hell‘ who has won an Emmy for Breaking Bad. Rupert Sanders will be helming the project.

Three people will be producing it: Joe Roth, Palak Patel and Deborah Giarratana. The name ‘90 Church‘ refers to the place of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics in New York, when it was formed to tackle the increasing organised crime and drug traffic in the 1960s and 1970s. FBI agents used cunning tactics to stop the increasing numbers. The reputation of ‘90 Church‘ grew with the body count as well.

The book was a fiction story but was written by an agent himself who worked in the department. Mastras is repped by CAA and manager Dan Halsted.
