Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
At age fifteen, the day her parents were going to lock her up in a psychiatric ward, Violetta stole a stack of money from her family and escaped from Mexico to the United States, a country with luxuries, vices and many unhappy husbands to discover. During her rebellious, turbulent and wild adventures in New York City, Violetta narrates the fears, the solitude, and the broken illusions of a charming girl whose life was created based on the manipulation of others. Description in Spanish: Violetta tiene quince anos cuando cruza la frontera con mas de cien mil dolares robados a sus padres, asimismo excelentes amigos de lo ajeno. Azarosamente desembarcada en Nueva York, sobrevive durante cuatro anos a todo tren, gastando varios kilogramos de dinero malhabido. Para mantener ese ritmo, acelerado todavia mas por el polvo blanco que introduce por su nariz en cantidades generosas, se ensena a enganchar hombres en lobbies de hoteles lujosos. No sabe, ni le interesa, la cantidad de leyes, limites y preceptos a los que pasa por encima. Tampoco sabe que Nefastofeles, el supuesto rico heredero que la deslumbra, sera como una daga clavada en su bella espalda hasta que, ya de vuelta en Mexico, se tope con Pig, y llegue entonces la hora del Diablo Guardian.
