Paperback. Condition: Good. Revenge and murder define Ximena Godoy's story. Her lifetime spans the first half of the 20th century, a transformative time of revolution, economic depression, uprooting, and migration. During that time she witnesses and participates in an era of revolution, bootlegging, dance halls, as well as evolv…ing rules that determine women's lives in both Mexico and America. Never a traditional or conventional woman, Ximena Godoy shatters rules that govern her Mexican heritage and even those of a wider world. Her story portrays an ever-changing woman who morphs from sheltered child into a complex, deeply flawed human being, passionate and independent, quick to love unconditionally but just as ready to cling obsessively to revenge, a flaw that leads her into the murky world of murder and criminal justice.
