Paco Ignacio Taibo II

Paco Ignacio Taibo II was born 1949 in Spain and has been living in Mexico since 1957; in his own words, he writes detective novels. PIT II’s works are entertaining, intelligent, historically savvy, socially critical novels in which legends about the revolution and daily myths collide with the harsh realities of life. PIT II reads from his novel "The Shadow of the Shadow" which was recently published in German: Mexico 1922, a power hungry group tries to incorporate the Mexican Gulf region into the United States, but a few bold characters are onto their game.
