    Over the course of three decades, El Chapo was responsible for smuggling hundreds of tons of cocaine, marijuana, heroin, meth, and fentanyl around the world, becoming in the process the most celebrated and reviled drug lord since Pablo Escobar. El Chapo waged ruthless wars against his rivals and former allies, plunging vast areas of Mexico into unprecedented levels of violence, even as many in his home state of Sinaloa continued to view him as a hero. This unputdownable book, written by a great new talent, brings El Chapo’s exploits into a focus that previous profiles have failed to capture. Hurowitz digs in deep beyond the legends and delves into El Chapo’s life and legacy—not just the hunt for him, revealing some of the most dramatic and often horrifying moments of his notorious career, including the infamous prison escapes, brutal murders, multi-million-dollar government payoffs, and the paranoia and narcissism that led to his downfall. From the evolution of organized crime in Mexico to the militarization of the drug war to the devastation wrought on both sides of the border by the introduction of synthetic opioids like fentanyl, this book is a gripping and comprehensive work of investigative, on-the-ground reporting.

Tristan is impressed by Lydia’s elegance, and after observing her attempts to maintain her dignity during an intimate, embarrassing medical examination, he decides to claim her for his bride. He knows full well, however, that Lydia has never worked a day in her life, and the wife of the leader of the new regime cannot have the bearing of a pampered daughter of aristocrats. He sets out to both humble his new bride and teach her to obey, and soon Lydia is writhing over Tristan’s lap as her bare bottom is thoroughly spanked and then quivering with helpless desire as he explores her beautiful body. Though she blushes crimson at the thought of yielding to his mastery so easily, it isn’t long before she is yearning for his skilled, dominant lovemaking. Though Lydia’s passion for her new husband grows rapidly, she is horrified when he demands that she learn to keep house the old-fashioned way, without robots or servants.
