Este libro forma parte del largo recorrido periodístico de Anabel Hernández dentro del complejo mundo del crimen organizado en México, así como de su incesante búsqueda por entender los diversos componentes de los cárteles de la droga, los cuales tienen sumida a la nación desde hace décadas en una espiral de violencia en la que todos los días son explotadas, desaparecidas o asesinadas decenas de personas inocentes, muchas de ellas del sexo femenino. Desde su bestseller Los señores del narco (2010), este es quizás el acercamiento más íntimo a la cúpula del narcotráfico, un detrás de cámaras de lo que ocurre en el multimillonario negocio criminal. En Emma y las otras señoras del narco,la autora recorre el velo y muestra las pulsiones más profundas que hacen a los narcos buscar poder y dinero a toda costa. La autora de El traidor (2019), multigalardonada y reconocida internacionalmente como experta en temas de narcotráfico, una vez más gira la mesa del tablero y ofrece al lector un análisis casi antropológico de los capos de la droga y su entorno más cercano desde una nueva óptica: el mundo de sus mujeres. En estas páginas desfilan personajes como Emma Coronel y otras esposas de importantes narcotraficantes, una ex Miss Universo, y algunas de las actrices, cantantes y conductoras de televisión más reconocidas y aplaudidas en México, tanto del pasado como de la época actual. Madres, esposas y amantes. Mujeres que se amoldan a las reglas machistas de sus amos y bailan ante ellos —en privado, fiestas u orgías— la danza de los siete velos, y lo hacen sobre los cadáveres de los miles que han sido víctimas de los mismos hombres a quienes deleitan con su cómplice presencia a cambio de dinero, joyas y propiedades. Con el rigor investigativo que la caracteriza, Anabel Hernández, a través de entrevistas realizadas a testigos de los hechos, lleva al lector a las reuniones familiares, fiestas y alcobas de diversos narcotraficantes donde ocurren las historias de amor, compra y venta de placer, incesto, ambición, traición y venganza. Un mundo hasta ahora desconocido. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This book is part of Anabel Hernández's long journalistic journey within the complex world of organized crime in Mexico. It continues her relentless search to understand the drug cartels’ various components which have plunged the country in a downward spiral of violence for decades, and one in which dozens of innocent people are exploited, disappeared, or killed every day, many of them female. Since publishing her bestseller Los señores del narco/Narcoland, this is perhaps the most intimate contact to the leadership in drug trafficking, a behind-the-scenes look at what happens in the multimillion-dollar criminal business. In Emma and Other Narco Women, Hernández exposes what’s behind the veil and reveals their drive to seek power and money at all costs. The multi-award-winning and internationally recognized expert on the drug trafficking world, turns the table once again and offers readers an almost anthropological analysis of drug lords and those closest to their inner circle from a new point of view: the women within that world. In these pages we see women such as Emma Coronel and other wives of important drug lords, a former Miss Universe, some of Mexico’s most recognized and acclaimed actresses, singers, and television hosts from the past and from present time. Mothers, wives, and lovers. Women who conform to their masters’ male chauvinistic rules and dance the dance of the seven veils for them -in private, at parties, or orgies-, and they do it on the conscience of thousands of victims of those same masters who they entertain in exchange for money, jewelry, and properties. Through interviews, witnesses to events, and the investigative meticulousness and that characterizes her, Anabel Hernández takes the reader to family gatherings, parties, and even inside the bedrooms of various drug bosses where we witness love stories, the sale of goods, the sale of sexual favors, incest, betrayals, and revenge. An, until now, secret world.
