Perfect for fans of Mick Herron and John Le Carre "The most
important thing that's happened in Mexican literature in the last
thirty years" Gaby Wood, Sunday Telegraph. It's Christmas in
Culiacan and Detective Edgar "Lefty" Mendieta can't believe his
luck. An old flame has returned with a teenage son he knew nothing
about. Happiness seems to finally beckon for our careworn hero. The
only snag is that Jason Mendieta wants to follow in his father's
footsteps-even as Mexico's drug war descends a slippery slope
toward chaos. While Lefty pursues a lunatic who has taken to
bumping off dentists with a heavy-calibre pistol, a secret agent
infiltrates a meeting of the drug lords and hears Pacific Cartel
boss Samantha Valdes implore her underlings to stay out of the war.
But an audacious murder provokes Samantha to change her mind and
launch a wave of grisly killings across the country. Samantha then
persuades Lefty to help her find the killer that pushed her over
the edge. The truth he discovers will underline an old adage:
revenge is a dish best served cold. No quiet family Christmas for
our detective.
