Forget that title, down Mexico way our protagonist is an equal opportunity murderer without discrimination as to race, nation, gender, creed, orientation, height, age, colour, creed, or interest. It is very noir because every character says f**k in every sentence. Mongolia is as irrelevant as just about everything else in these pages.
Protagonist is told to be discreet and that his quarry is not Chinese. He then goes to Chinatown and asks the Chinese he finds there direct questions about Chinese. This is his idea of discretion. He did not graduate at the top of the class in Thug School. It gets worse, far worse. I flipped the pages — seemed like more than 192 — in the hope of a taste of Mexico City, but there is very little after some street names.
A long and didactic introduction by an enthusiast put me off lunch. Those who claim to know say this is the author’s masterpiece. Amen to that.
