Overview
Asesinatos de bailarinas de cabaret, un sistema judicial en deterioro y el narcotráfico en su punto más alto. El segundo caso del «todavía un poco honesto» -Edgar «el Zurdo» Mendieta.
En un México azotado por la guerra contra el narcotráfico, el detective Edgar «el Zurdo» Mendieta, que cabalga entre el camino de la ley y el del crimen, debe resolver el asesinato de Mayra Cabral de Melo, al mismo tiempo que navega un campo minado en el que están involucrados narcotraficantes, políticos, policías, oligarcas, agentes del FBI y sus propias cuentas pendientes.
En esta segunda aventura del Zurdo Mendieta se evidencia la fragilidad del sistema judicial.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Egdar "Lefty" Mendieta investigates the death of a notorious stripper in this second sweltering "Narco-lit" noir from the Godfather of Mexican crime fiction.
An intelligent, atmospheric police procedural series for fans of John Le Carré and Mick Heron When the mutilated body of Mayra Cabral de Melo is found in a dusty field, Detective Edgar "Lefty" Mendieta has personal reasons for bringing the culprit to justice. Mayra, a well-known stripper, had no shortage of ardent, deluded and downright dangerous admirers, and Lefty himself is haunted by the night he spent in her company.
As Mexico's drug war ramps up, Lefty's pursuit of a gallery of jealous and powerful suspects, all with a murderous glint in their eye, leads him to Samantha Valdés, the godfather's daughter, who is battling to retain her father's empire. And as the mystery deepens, the bodycount rises.
