While the drug cartels expand into abductions, ransoms, and murder the tourist resorts may be the last safe haven. Are they really as safe as advertised? Take a dark trip into the world of human trafficking and international prostitution. Look at the short lives of innocent young women forced into the shadows forgotten by society. Young girls promised eventual freedom that they never again experience. Straight out of today's headlines and the whispers no one wants to hear. Two From Mazatlán hints at the fate of women forced into human trafficking and the illegal sex trade. Mazatlán should be the perfect setting for a romantic honeymoon. The magic of the brightly colored markets during the day and the tropical nights in a luxury hotel is the perfect setting. Almost instantly the ultimate honeymoon turns into the ultimate nightmare. In a matter of hours, a new bride's world of festive days and sensual nights in a private hot tub changes to the mental deprivation of an isolation cell. The mental torture, prepares the innocent bride for her new life and frightening future. Abduction by a greedy drug lord thrusts Anne Cromly on a path into the dark world of the foreign sex trade. The local police are controlled by the drug lord and are unwilling to help. Even a ransom payment can't save her from a brutal future ending in eventual execution. As a last act of desperation and a favor to a friend, Jake Roads steps in to try to save the young bride. Despite a meddling father, Jake formulates a rescue plan to pluck Anne from the clutches of the greedy drug lord. An accidental comment gets back to the drug lord thwarting the rescue plan and putting everyone in imminent danger. With no possible plan and the hostage numbers increasing daily, Jake faces countless obstacles on every step of his planned rescue. With nothing left to try, Jake must face the drug lord in person to delay the inevitable execution of the young bride and a group of innocent local girls. Jake goads a volatile drug cartel leader into extreme actions leading to a last ditch rescue with only a single chance of success. The only weapon he has left is his own intelligence and quick actions. Jake reverts to luck and a prayer to find a way out when he finds himself and the hostages he needs to rescue between the greed of the drug lord and a hunger school of sharks in the vast Pacific Ocean. A story that might make you think twice about that luxury vacation south of the border. Jake Roads reveals a small insight to the real world of covert operation, not the Hollywood version that verges closer to pure fantasy.
