FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Hiding behind legitimate business doesn’t make the crimes of drug cartels any less heinous
Dallas, TX, September 15, 2011 - Terror on the Border (Unrivaled Books) by novelist Dr. Ernie Hunt is a riveting story so steeped in realism of the devastation wreaked by Mexican drug cartels that it is hard to believe it’s fiction!


Dave Cunningham, author of Travel Within: The 7 Steps to Wisdom and Inner Peace says it all with: “Terror on the Border is a gripping story. The last 120 pages will take you on a breathless ride.”
Hunt’s lead character is Jack Cassidy, a fearless ex-sniper who wants justice! And he wants it for the oppressed citizens of San Miguel, Mexico, a town ravaged by violence inflicted by a malicious cartel, headed up by an egotistical madman and his evil enforcer. Married to a woman who was herself a victim of human trafficking, Cassidy and his bride Juanita set out to do all they can to help this seemingly forgotten town.
Juanita is kidnapped along with her cousin, an American Border Patrol Officer, by the notorious Lobos gang and held for ransom in hopes of making their rich uncle pay for their release. After a daring escape from their torture chamber, they reunite with Jack and two private detectives from Dallas and set out to warn their uncle of the impending danger from the cartel.
Dr. Hunt’s compelling and inimitable style of story-telling will have readers gripped by fear but unable to put the book down as the action intensifies in bloody confrontations near the border, and the shocking twists and turns will hold readers’ attention all the way to the explosive ending!
Dr. Hunt’s novel draws attention to the $20 billion a year human slave trade that exists in Mexico and to one cartel in particular that is born of Mexican Army Special Forces deserters whose members include corrupt former federal, state and local police officers.

###I LOVE this line:

"Hiding behind legitimate business doesn’t make the crimes of drug cartels any less heinous"


...they say this like ANYONE WOULD EVER THINK IT.  Like, "Sure, the drug cartel kills people, terrorizes villages, destroys communities... but the fact they launder money through a pizza parlor makes it ALL OKAY because I LOVE PIZZA!  

Also, can we talk about the "notorious Lobos Gang?"  Doesn't this seem like exactly the gang name a white person who knew no Spanish would come up with? (sorry Dr. Hunt) not to mention naming the protagonist "Juanita"...It's all making me want to write a thriller set in Russia where "Natasha" is kidnapped by an evil gang known as the "Borscht Babushkas"...it would also have an EXPLOSIVE ENDING.  And probably a torture chamber...where people would be forced to eat Borscht and listen to Gorky Park.
