Down By The River by Charles Bowden
A searing work of investigative narrative that follows the violence and decay along the U.S.–Mexico border, documenting the discovery of bodies in the river, the rise of drug trafficking and cartel brutality, and the corruption and official indifference that allow such atrocities to continue; through vivid reportage, personal observation, and moral urgency, the book lays bare the human cost of the drug trade and border policy, portraying a landscape of fear, grief, and environmental as well as social ruin while calling out the complacency and complicity that perpetuate it.
