An Easy Thing (Penguin Crime Mystery) [Mass Market Paperback]

Paco Ignacio Taibo II (Author), William Neuman (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

A Mexican private eye tackles three mysteries at once--a kidnapping, two murders at a steel plant and rumors that a famed Mexican Revolution martyr is still alive. "In complexity of social setting, ingenious plotting and philosophical depth, Taibo ranks with the best," praised PW.

This review is from: An Easy Thing (Hardcover)

I can't say I really enjoyed this book, it was interesting because of the honesty of the author. He didn't deny the corruption of the police and other officials in Mexico; however I found the stories themselves rather boring.
