Since 1993 almost five hundred women have been murdered in Ciudad, Ju�rez. Locals believe the true number stands at five thousand.

When a new disappearance is reported, Kelly Courter, a washed-up Texan boxer, and Rafael Sevilla, a Mexican detective, are sucked into an underworld of organized crime, believing they can outwit the corruption all around. The Dead Women of Ju�rez follows these two men obsessed with seeking the truth about the female victims of the Mexican border wars.

Sam Hawken is a native of Texas now living in Washington, DC.
