Savages

Savages/Don Winslow 302 pgs.

Ben and Chon are best friends who run a lucrative marijuana business that includes production and sales. When a Mexican cartel tries to take them over, they rebel and in response, their friend Ophelia is kidnapped. Ben and Chon aren't exactly cowed and start to take their revenge. This is a book of action that moves at a breakneck pace but it is more than that as we learn the lesson that if you categorize your enemy as savages, it is easy to justify your own actions towards them. - Christa
