In the Shadow of Saint Death: The Gulf Cartel and the Price of America's Drug War in Mexico
In the Shadow of Saint Death is not for the fainthearted. It contains  uncomfortable, painful truths about Mexico's powerful and bloody Gulf Cartel, its origins, and the insatiable U.S. demand for illicit drugs. Richly told, Michael Deibert's book is a remarkable chronicle of a cartel's rise and a country's fall.- Alfredo Corchado, author of Midnight in Mexico: A Reporter's Journey Through a Country's Descent into Darkness
