The Dead Women of Juarez

In the last twenty years, over 3000 women have disappeared from the town of Ciudad Juarez, on the border between Mexico and the USA. Sam Hawken takes this story of mass murder and abduction and weaves around it the story of Kelly Courter, a washed up boxer from Texas, who's past minding playing the stooge in the ring, as long as he gets paid. Courter is sucked into the underworld of organised crime that flourishes in the city, fast finding himself in way over his head. As his life spins out of control, he becomes obsessed with seeking the truth about the female victims of Juarez. Fast paced and brutal, Sam Hawken is a classic American voice and Kelly Coulter is a timeless American hero, fighting for freedom and justice.
