This was an interesting little novel based on true events that occurred in Mexico in the 1950's & '60's. Sisters Arcangela and Serafina are successful brothel owners until the law starts to threaten their livelihood. The book reads a bit more like a news expose or articles than a fully narrative story, but that is what makes this unique and interesting. It's not exactly true crime, but similar and dark and I may research further.
