Antonio Espinar, capo of Mexico’s nefarious Las Brujas cartel and foosball fanatic, has no love for the media. In fact, he has a history of hanging the corpses of reporters he’s murdered from highway overpasses as a sign to stay out of his business. So if a journalist could get<\/span> an interview with him and survive it, they would no doubt get<\/span> the attention of everyone in the world–including the Pulitzer board. But it would take someone fearless to do it.<\/p>\n

Travel writer Nick Ripley is not fearless. He’s desperate. Desperate to win his wife back after losing their life savings in a real-estate scam. Desperate enough to not only interview Espinar face to face, but to offer to write the man’s biography–for a paltry 10 million dollars.<\/p>\n

Surprise: Espinar accepts.<\/p>\n

Bigger surprise: Espinar pays out the 10 million in marijuana. An American ton of grade-A bobo bush.<\/p>\n

Saddled with this burdensome prize, Nick and his sticky-fingered fixer, Manu Paulo, must find a way to smuggle their truckload of contraband across the border and sell it to reap their payday. Further complicating matters, Manu liberated Espinar’s prized pet emu, Idiota<\/span>, before their departure.<\/p>\n

Now, Espinar wants their heads–and his bird back. A modern Amazonian village wants to keep them as sex slaves. An oddball trio of criminals with a penchant for the occult and explosives wants to steal their goods. And every law enforcement agency from Mexico City to Manitoba wants them locked up.<\/p>\n

Can they escape with their lives and come away with a fortune? Or will they find themselves digging their own graves in the middle of cartel country?<\/p>\n
