Описание: The enemy of my enemy is my friend...Detective Jake Castillo returns in TROJAN HORSE, the second installment of the AFTER THE BLOOD saga. When a misguided act of desperation leads to nightclub owner Nara Lopez being brutally assaulted, Melissa Colon turns to the only two men she can trust to find her best friend's attackers - her brothers. But can Jake Castillo & Carlito Colon put their own violent history behind them long enough to find out who was behind the assault? As the two bitter enemies attempt to work through their differences, other forces are conspiring against them as Marco Santana seeks retribution against Carlito Colon for his failed assassination attempt several months ago. He enlists the help of Marilyn Moreno, the queen-pin of Miami's most powerful drug cartel, to assist him in taking control of New York City's criminal underworld. But unknown to Marco, Moreno is making power moves of her own...As Carlito continues to make enemies in his quest to reclaim his former glory, Jake also has his own score to settle as he enters the corrupt world of prizefighting to investigate the brutal murder of his friend Nick Rodrigo, a champion mixed martial artist with ties to East Harlem's bloody gang scene.
An illuminating and thought-provoking history of the growth of Hispanic American Republican voters in the past half century and their surprising impact on US politics
In the lead-up to every election cycle, pundits predict that Latino Americans will overwhelmingly vote in favor of the Democratic candidate. And it's true--Latino voters do tilt Democratic. Hillary Clinton won the Latino vote in a "landslide," Barack Obama "crushed" Mitt Romney among Latino voters in his reelection, and, four years earlier, the Democratic ticket beat the McCain-Palin ticket by a margin of more than two to one. But those numbers belie a more complicated picture. Because of decades of investment and political courtship, as well as a nuanced and varied cultural identity, the Republican party has had a much longer and stronger bond with Hispanics. How is this possible for a party so associated with draconian immigration and racial policies?
In The Hispanic Republican, historian and political commentator Geraldo Cadava illuminates the history of the millions of Hispanic Republicans who, since the 1960s, have had a significant impact on national politics. Intertwining the little understood history of Hispanic Americans with a cultural study of how post-World War II Republican politicians actively courted the Hispanic vote during the Cold War (especially Cuban migr s) and during periods of major strife in Central America (especially during Iran-Contra), Cadava offers insight into the complicated dynamic between Latino liberalism and conservatism, which, when studied together, shine a crucial light on a rapidly changing demographic that will impact American elections for years to come.
