Mexico Mystery

La ciudad perdida de los aztecas encierra un laberinto de secretos que puede cambiar el rumbo de la historia. La profecía de Aztlán es una trepidante mezcla de ficción y realidad en un mundo que se mueve al borde del abismo, obra del autor superventas Mario Escobar. Mientras Londres está siendo bombardeada por el ejército del Káiser, Hércules Guzmán Fox, George Lincoln y Alicia Mantorella reciben el encargo de investigar la serie de macabros rituales aztecas aparentemente ligados a la desaparición de un códice del siglo XVI que habla sobre la legendaria ciudad de Aztlán.

A questo filone, quasi sfociante nel dramma antirazzista, che allora furoreggiava in certo cinema e in certo teatro americano alla Tennessee Williams, appartiene "Rossa".
