The tumultuous modernization of the region provides the setting for a young woman's journey from village life to city life. In Juarez Guadalupe finds a wholesale murder of young women that implicates a monstrous conspiracy stretching from the hinterland to Mexico 's capital city. Guadalupe is inspired by the Virgin of Guadalupe, whose name she bears, as a sense of her mission develops. Guadalupe finds dangers and allies in her search for answers as women disappear around her. Colorful and delightful characters-not all of them mortal-- join Guadalupe in her quest.
