The setting is this steamy western city, long known as the narco capital of Mexico. The main character is a drug trafficker with an easy smile who wins his young love’s heart by replacing an old tin-roofed church so the two can attend Sunday Mass without rain leaks interrupting the sermon.
But the young man, known as “El Roba Chivas,” the Goat Bandit, is soon gunned down inside his gold-plated SUV on the streets of Culiacán.
The scene, drawn from real life, may soon show up in the pages of a novel.”*
