About this book

Edward Humes examines the mass killings in Matamoros, Mexico during the 1980s, centered on Adolfo Constanzo, a Santería devotee and cult leader who began as a fortune-teller in Mexico City. Recognizing greater profit in the drug trade than the occult, Constanzo rose through the ranks of drug trafficking while becoming known for extreme brutality. He employed kidnappings, torture, and murder to maintain control over his operations. Buried Secrets explores how the drug trade intersected with politics and religion, investigating the religious elements that contributed to the iconic status of drug kingpins. The book presents this historical account with unflinching detail, drawing on Humes's background as a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist.
