Buenos Aires Triad2021

A portrait of small-time crooks and immigrant gangs in Argentina's capital... Lucas is a humble watch-seller moonlighting for a gang of armed robbers. He wants to go straight but instead becomes more entangled when he joins gang leader Gustavo in extortion work for the triads. "The chapters are tight and frenetic, and the author's prose is deft and vivid. Beyer seems intimately familiar with his setting, and does well in colourfully portraying the unsavoury sort lurking in the shadows."
