Desde su bestseller Los seores del narco (2010), este es quizs el acercamiento ms ntimo a la cpula del narcotrfico, un detrs de cmaras de lo que ocurre en el multimillonario negocio criminal.

Madres, esposas y amantes. Mujeres que se amoldan a las reglas machistas de sus amos y bailan ante ellos --en privado, fiestas u orgas-- la danza de los siete velos, y lo hacen sobre los cadveres de los miles que han sido vctimas de los mismos hombres a quienes deleitan con su cmplice presencia a cambio de dinero, joyas y propiedades. Con el rigor investigativo que la caracteriza, Anabel Hernndez, a travs de entrevistas realizadas a testigos de los hechos, lleva al lector a las reuniones familiares, fiestas y alcobas de diversos narcotraficantes donde ocurren las historias de amor, compra y venta de placer, incesto, ambicin, traicin y venganza. Un mundo hasta ahora desconocido. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This book is part of Anabel Hernndez's long journalistic journey within the complex world of organized crime in Mexico. It continues her relentless search to understand the drug cartels' various components which have plunged the country in a downward spiral of violence for decades, and one in which dozens of innocent people are exploited, disappeared, or killed every day, many of them female. Since publishing her bestseller Los seores del narco/Narcoland, this is perhaps the most intimate contact to the leadership in drug trafficking, a behind-the-scenes look at what happens in the multimillion-dollar criminal business. In Emma and Other Narco Women, Hernndez exposes what's behind the veil and reveals their drive to seek power and money at all costs. The multi-award-winning and internationally recognized expert on the drug trafficking world, turns the table once again and offers readers an almost anthropological analysis of drug lords and those closest to their inner circle from a new point of view: the women within that world. In these pages we see women such as Emma Coronel and other wives of important drug lords, a former Miss Universe, some of Mexico's most recognized and acclaimed actresses, singers, and television hosts from the past and from present time. Mothers, wives, and lovers. Women who conform to their masters' male chauvinistic rules and dance the dance of the seven veils for them -in private, at parties, or orgies-, and they do it on the conscience of thousands of victims of those same masters who they entertain in exchange for money, jewelry, and properties. Through interviews, witnesses to events, and the investigative meticulousness and that characterizes her, Anabel Hernndez takes the reader to family gatherings, parties, and even inside the bedrooms of various drug bosses where we witness love stories, the sale of goods, the sale of sexual favors, incest, betrayals, and revenge. An, until now, secret world.
