A novel laureate of the Bram Stoker and Shirley Jackson awards.
A bloody story of a man desperately trying to save what remains of his family. For this, he will have to plunge into the depths of violence - both real and supernatural.
Murder never became a regular job for Mario. But the path of a hitman is the only way to cure his little daughter. However, the stack of medical bills is not decreasing, and family relationships are on the verge of breaking.
In this crisis, Mario receives an offer: a final job that will either permanently lift him out of poverty or send him to another world with a bullet in his head. A man named Juanka needs a partner to carry out a heist on Mexican drug cartel couriers carrying two million dollars.
Mario has nothing to lose, so he embarks on the journey. Every day, unimaginable horrors happen around him, and at the end of the road, the devil awaits him.
"Sometimes, waking up from a nightmare, you plunge into an even more terrifying nightmare. That's when Gabino Iglesias reaches out from the darkness and leads you home." - Stephen Graham Jones
"A true neon noir, filled with all the rage and sadness of our time. This novel is brutal, hallucinatory, yet beautiful. And it confirms what some of us already knew: Gabino Iglesias has a vivid, furious voice." - Paul Tremblay
"Vintage noir with the atmosphere of 'Heart of Darkness,' played out on the border with Mexico, with all the resulting soul pain (the author himself calls the genre barrio-noir). What you don't expect is magical realism (and horror) paired with dark crime fiction about violence that repeats itself over and over again." - Chicago Tribune
"No one writes like Gabino Iglesias. His prose combines rich and magnificent poetry with metaphorical cruelty." - HorrorDNA
"A novel filled with folklore and horrors. An odyssey in the hope of putting an end to one's suffering by any means necessary. This book, filled with the atmosphere of noir and delightful criticism, demonstrates the twisted logic of a nightmare that reminds the reader that there is no single direct path to redemption."
