What an insane blood soaked ride with an ending to match! Even though the MC Fernando flees Mexico after pissing of the wrong people, he can’t help himself falling back into a line of work, dealing drugs, that has been lucrative for him, but he could be doing this at his own peril. There are no saints, but the demons he prays for protection from are very real in human form. Zero Saints is both brutal and bleak, with a tentative relief at the end. I couldn’t put down the end couple dozen pages of this book because how everything turned out was so crazy!
