La novela que vio nacer al Zurdo Mendieta, el detective sui géneris que apuntaló a Élmer Mendoza en el panorama literario internacional.

Desconcertado por el recuerdo constante de la mujer que ama, el agente Edgar «el Zurdo» Mendieta acude a un psicoanalista; se le acumula el trabajo en cuanto se hace cargo del asesinato de Bruno Canizales, un prestigioso abogado con doble vida, hijo del exministro de Agricultura, al que encuentran con la cabeza perforada por una bala de plata. El teléfono del Zurdo no deja de sonar con las llamadas de su superior, que va anunciándole la aparición de nuevos cadáveres en tan solo un par de días.

¿Qué hay detrás de todo ello? ¿Los narcos?, ¿los políticos alborotados ante las elecciones que se acercan?, ¿los miembros de la dudosa Pequeña Fraternidad Universal a la que pertenecía Canizales? La investigación, que no sin humor y adrenalina recorre antros y mansiones y mezcla reporteros y bellísimas lesbianas, destapa un intrincado ovillo de perversos intereses, en el que el único realmente empeñado en ir hasta el fondo, y para variar hacer justicia, es el Zurdo Mendieta. Tal vez porque ya no le queda nada que perder.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The novel that introduced Zurdo Mendieta, the one-of-a-kind detective who launched Élmer Mendoza onto the international literary scene.

Unsettled by constant memories of the woman he loves, agent Edgar "Zurdo" [Lefty] Mendieta visits a psychanalyst. His work starts piling up when he is tasked with investigating the murder of Bruno Canizales, a prestigious attorney with a double life, son of the former Minister of Agriculture, who is found with a silver bullet in his brain. And his phone won't stop ringing with calls from his superior, announcing the discovery of new bodies just days later.

Who is behind it all? Drug cartels? The politicians fighting tooth and nail as elections approach? The Universal Small Brotherhood, to which Canizales belonged? Enlivened by moments of humor and adrenaline, the investigation takes Zurdo to mansions and dives, where he meets sources ranging from reporters to drop-dead gorgeous lesbians. He discovers an intricate web of perverse interests in which the only person determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, and see justice done, is Zurdo Mendieta. Maybe because he has nothing left to lose.

All around helpful---worth the money!
Format: Paperback
This guide has been most helpful for all the folks I help prepare for the iTEP test! It gives insight into what each section of the test is looking for along with examples and great tips about actually TAKING the test. In the Writing and Speaking sections, it also gives sample scores and comments from the Master Grader which is very helpful too.

Comprehensive, clear and coherent!
Format: Paperback
The iTEP Practice Guide combines a no-nonsense approach to the specific iTEP tests and at the same time offers exercises that task the student with what they need to know. Exercises not only serve the purpose of scoring well, but the overall approach is communicative competence. We use the text in our group and one-to-one classes with very positive--and lasting--results.

No recomiendo
Format: Paperback
Muy malo, no vine completo, además se demoró mucho más de lo que decía al momento de comprarlo. Solo aplazaban la fecha de entrega sin consultar cómo afectaba al cliente. Yo tuve que presentar el examen sin el libro, porque no llegó en la fecha que decía al comprarlo y después se cambió 3 veces la fecha, casi cumpliendo el mes.
