Présentation de l'éditeur

Big international companies have taken advantage of cheap labor and tax breaks offered by the Mexican Government to set up huge manufacturing facilities in Ciudad Juarez, near the border with the United States.Work is carried out in less than human conditions, with workers exposed to harmful chemicals and supervised with an iron fist. Corpses of mutilated female workers have surfaced all over town, sometimes decapitated, sometimes emptied of their internal organs. Is this the work of a psychopath, the machination of a satanic sect, or an account settlement among drug dealers? This book is an excellent detective story, dark, very visual and cinematographic.
