A journalist out of Mexico's Gulf Coast state of Veracruz, Regina's stories for the magazine \u003ci\u003eProceso\u003c\/i\u003e laid out the corruption and abuse underlying Mexican politics. She was barred from press conferences, and copies of \u003ci\u003eProceso\u003c\/i\u003e often disappeared before they made the newsstands. In 2012, shortly after \u003ci\u003eProceso \u003c\/i\u003epublished an article on corruption and two Veracruz politicians, and the magazine went missing once again, she was bludgeoned to death in her bathroom. The message was clear: No journalist in Mexico was safe. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKatherine Corcoran, then leading the Associated Press coverage of Mexico, admired Regina Mart?ez's work. Troubled by the news of her death, Corcoran journeyed to Veracruz to find out what had happened. Regina hadn't even written the controversial article. But did she have something else that someone didn't want published? Once there, Katherine bonded with four of Regina's grief-stricken mentees, each desperate to prove who was to blame for the death of their friend. Together they battled cover-ups, narco-officials, red tape, and threats to sift through the mess of lies--and discover what got Regina killed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA gripping look at reporters who dare to step on the deadly \"third rail,\" where the state and organized crime have become indistinguishable, \u003ci\u003eIn the Mouth of the Wolf \u003c\/i\u003econfronts how silencing the free press threatens basic protections and rule of law across the globe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katherine Corcoran\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1635575036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781635575033\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.55h x 6.07w x 1.09d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2022 pg. 12\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2022 pg. 5\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/21\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2023","brand":"Katherine Corcoran","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44173276774655,"sku":"9781635575033","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9b6e0c7a-8990-4280-8e0d-b9b11af26dbd.jpg?v=1689791930","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-the-mouth-of-the-katherine-corcoran-9781635575033","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
