El Gran Mariachi

ByLuigi Kleinsasser

A musically talented, Méxican orphan is released from the Convent orphanage as an apprentice plumber but runs away and finds solace with an aged fruit-vendor in México City. When the Old Man realizes the depth of the boy’s musical ability he sends him off on the quest to become a Mariachi. Arriving in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, the boy, Memo, teams up with a bus troubadour where they gain fame and notoriety. A Drug Lord, looking for a way to launder his ill-gotten gains, snaps the lad up to promote him for concerts and a way to make his dirty wealth spendable. But, Memo, now as a young man, falls in love with the Drug Lord’s mistress and all hell breaks loose. I must admit that I shed a few tears at times while writing this novel and I hope that you might also while reading it. A tale of action, romance, intrigue, betrayal and how good deeds don’t necessarily have the best outcome. An easy, fun read, very informative and you just might visit México on your next vacation!
