Sam Hawken's novel, The Dead Women of Juarez is the most stunning piece of work I've read in a long time. Based on the horrific true murders of those women, it is an instant classic.
The main character, Kelly, is one of the utterly compelling characters I've ever read. A beautiful compassionate gruelling novel, as ferocious to read as it is soul wrenching. Think The Wrestler meets Under the Volcano with the awful truth of the main events being true.
The depiction of the underbelly of Mexico is Dante's vision of hell, fuelled on drugs. A wondrous love affair between the washed up ex-boxer and the Mexican lady Paloma is epic and beautiful in its terrible foreboding.
This book will haunt you for a long long time and the dignity given to the mothers of the lost women is writing of a whole other dimension.
(Ken Bruen)Since 1993 over 500 women have been murdered in Ciudad Juárez.
Residents believe the true number of disappeared stands at 5,000.
When a new disappearance is reported, Kelly Courter, a washed-up Texan boxer, and Rafael Sevilla, a Mexican detective, are sucked into an underworld of organised crime, believing they can outwit the corruption all around. The Dead Women of Juárez follows these two men obsessed with seeking the truth about the female victims of the Mexican border wars.
