This book is about a young man and three women, about the bloodiest revolution in Latin American history, which killed two million people, and about the fate of the treasures of a looted bank in northern Mexico. A young mining engineer, Martin Garrett, sent by a Spanish company to work in the silver mines of Mexico, finds himself in the thick of the brutal events of the Mexican Revolution. And for this to happen, first of all, a lively mind, innate curiosity, courage, nobility and true courage are needed. The rest is a matter of chance. It is only when Martin Garrett hears the first distant gunshot from his hotel room in Ciudad Juárez on May 8, 1911, and goes outside to see what is happening that he is swept up in a whirlwind of events that will change his life forever...
"Revolution" is more than a story about the dramatic events that shook Mexico in the first third of the 20th century. It is a story about coming of age amidst bloody chaos and the discovery of hidden laws that govern love, loyalty, life, and death.
