Mayra, a well-known stripper, had no shortage of ardent, deluded and downright dangerous admirers, and Lefty himself is haunted by the night he spent in her company.\n\nAs Mexico''s drug war ramps up, Lefty''s pursuit of a gallery of jealous and powerful suspects, all with a murderous glint in their eye, leads him to Samantha Vald\u00E9s, the godfather''s daughter, who is battling to retain her father''s empire. And as the mystery deepens, the bodycount rises.
