An unflinchingly grim and unputdownable novel set in Mexico in which the activities of a prolific serial killer go practically unnoticed in a country where homicide is quotidian. Hundreds of murders, multiple cover-ups. One cop and one activist. Can they really bring down the narcos? Mexico - Ciudad Real is in crisis. The economy is in meltdown, a new war between rival cartels is erupting and a serial killer is murdering hundreds of female workers. Fuentes, the detective in charge of investigation, suspects that most of his colleagues are on the payroll of his chief suspect, narco kingpin, El Santo. But if he is going to stop the killings he has to convince fiery union activist Pilar to ignore all her instincts and work with him. But in a city eclipsed by murder, madness and magic, can she really afford to trust him? 424pp, paperback.
