![]() ![]() ![]() A book that can provide knowledge on things in this world, as well as entertaining are amongst my faves. I particularly enjoyed reading about the Mexican cartels, El Paso, and Juarez. I love the gritty, smart, insightful writing style, and had to know what happened to the main character Jon’s brother. Review: This book had me hooked instantly. ![]() Jon finds himself strangely drawn by the danger and flux of the borderland, and he soon realizes that smack in the middle of a raging drug war might be the only place he’s ever felt truly alive…but the longer he stays, the more likely he is to be added to the rapidly mounting body count. As he dodges threats in El Paso and across the river in Juarez, Jon is aided by an alcoholic Iraq War veteran, a disgraced narcotics detective and a local tejana – all of whom have scores of their own to settle with the narcotraficantes. Within a matter of days, Jon is sucked into the violent and darkly humorous web of cartel warlords and free-trade profiteers in which his brother was tangled up. ![]()
