These murders were brutal and cruelly efficient. Corona's gang would cross into the United States from their luxurious hideout in Mexico, kill whoever needed to be killed north of the border, and return home in the afternoon. In this book, Martin's shocking first-hand confessions illuminate his descent from dealing drugs at the age of 12 to theft, guns and prostitution.
