This is most definitely a novel written with passion by one who seeks to propagate knowledge as much as thrills. And, you know what? Marcus nails it.
(Thank you so much Marcus for providing us with a copy for review. We also have a review of [[In Gold's Name by Marcus Dalrymple]].+)
Further Reading: If this piques your interest in the plight of Mexico, we also recommend [[The Dead Women of Juarez by Sam Hawken]].
