The Jaguar
The Jaguar: A Charlie Hood Novel | T. Jefferson Parker
1 post | 2 read
Songwriter Erin McKenna, the wife of a crooked LA County sheriff's deputy, is kidnapped by drug cartel chief Benjamin Armenta. Remarkably, Armenta's demands aren't for ransom or police favors. He orders Erin to compose a unique narcocorrido -- a folk ballad that records the exploits of the drug dealers and outlaws who have populated Mexican history for generations. Under threat of death, Armenta wants Erin to tell his life story in music and to write "the greatest narcocorrido of all time." As the mesmerizing music and lyrics of Erin's song cascade from the jungle hideout, they serve as a siren song to the two men who love Erin: her outlaw husband, Bradley Jones, and lawman Charlie Hood. Here, amid the ancient beauty of the Yucatecan lowland, the long-simmering rivalry between these men will be brought closer to its explosive finale.
