3.0

The setting was really interesting, Mexican history mixed with a "El zorro" kind of vigilante, I loved that. 
It was quite promising at the beginning, but pacing and the characters were not for me. 

This was a very fast-paced book, but in a way that felt rushed and quite underdeveloped. It felt like the author was always jumping from point to point, without developing or explaining what was happening. 
The characters were a bit flat as well, and I never managed to get attached to any of them.
