Description
Una loba que quiere ser libre, ¿podrá sobrevivir sin su manada? Lucy quiere escapar del territorio de su padre, un poderoso y temible político, que es también un prominente capo del crimen organizado en el norte de México. Su intento de escape no tiene un plan bien definido, por lo cual es capturada por Treviño, fiel esbirro del padre. Lucy no desiste, y en su ruta de huida va perdiendo casi todo: su cómoda vida, sus escasos amigos, sus hombres, su guardaespaldas...Todo, excepto su pistola. Pero eso es sólo el inicio: a sus escasos años habrá de conocer la degradación, la muerte, la miseria, quizás el incesto. Tal vez su vaga esperanza de escapar no se concrete. Tal vez su manada es más grande de lo que ella se imagina. Tal vez no hay escape.
Description
What's a wolf without its pack? Lucy is going to find out. She wants to escape the life imposed upon her by her corrupt but powerful father in northern Mexico, her overbearing brothers, and the guards assigned to watch her. As she sets out, she must forget everthing and leave it behind. Everything, that is, except her pistol. On the run in unknown territory, Lucy discovers she is not alone. She's joined a bigger pack that's also persistently hounded by corruption, death, and misery, a terrible world from which there is no escape.
