\u201cLa Familia: Loose Ends\u201d starts with the attempted murder of the country\u2019s most powerful drug lord, Vicente De Los Santos, who also happens to be the nation\u2019s ruler. It all happens at his 10-year old daughter\u2019s birthday party and in the wake, innocent children and women are killed, quickly leading to a national Armageddon. Severely injured, Vicente, \u201cThe Boss of Bosses,\u201d is out for blood. His eldest son, Ignacio, joins his avenging father while he carries secrets of his own and Ignacio\u2019s brother, Santino, returns home to help his family, but becomes suspect that something deeply sinister is afoot.<\/p>\n
Vicente\u2019s brother, Aurelio, an honest and fierce lieutenant in the Sinaloa State police, opens an investigation and quickly pieces together a frightening enemy. Gabriella, Vicente\u2019s wife, is a cunning business woman and mother. She works to keep the family, including her young daughter, Lucita, together while she continues to support the efforts of her ruthless husband.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve had the story in my head in for a few years,\u201d Cepeda says. \u201cAfter a recent career break from working in the pharmaceutical industry, I decided it was time to put pen to paper. The words poured out effortlessly.\u201d<\/p>\n
Inspired by TV shows such as \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d and \u201cSons of Anarchy,\u201d Cepeda says he wanted to write something that showed true conflict between characters.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wanted to create a series that I\u2019d want to read \u2013 something engaging, gripping, dark and conflicted,\u201d he says. \u201cThis series is the end result.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLa Familia: Loose Ends\u201d is a phenomenal introduction into the underbelly of the De Los Santos cartel dynasty. It exposes a highly complex and powerful family who are destined for a tragic end.<\/p>\n
Cepeda captures this spectacularly uncompromising fictional account of a complex and merciless family that struggles with two things: How to maintain their chokehold on the drug empire they have created; and the bloodlines that bond them.<\/p>\n
The book is available in print and digital format on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and from all other major book retailers.<\/p>\n
