In this episode 270, we visit with Jane Rosenthal, author of “Del Rio,” where the once thriving town set on the U.S.-Mexico border for which the book is named, is now run-down, a place the locals call Cartel Country.

When the dismembered body of a migrant teen is found in one of Del Rio’s surrounding citrus groves, local district attorney Callie McCall faces a career make-or-break case that takes her on a dangerous journey down the violent west coast of Mexico, to a tropical paradise hiding a terrible secret, and finally back home again, where her determination to find the killer pits her against the wealthiest, most politically connected, most ruthless farming family in California: her own.

Debra Thomas, author of the award-winning novel, LUZ, had this to say about the book: “A page-turner, its final chapters will keep you up until dawn.”
