The characters seem detached from themselves for the first 2/3 of the book, then it's as if the world changes from black-and-white to color and the characters start to display real emotions.

Dystopian future neo-noir focused on vampire Narcos whose cartels are based upon their clans within vampiric-subspecies. Another fun read from Silvia Moreno-Garcia. Although she continues to write genre and sub-genre diverse stories, Moreno-Garcia's character development feels consistent. I also enjoyed the incorporation of culturally specific vampire lore. This novel is more Underworld than Anne Rice.
