Another hit in the Ted and Chris Series
Gabriel Rodriguez on March 14, 2015
Pendelton Wallace hit another home run with The Mexican Connection.The gripping story of Mexico's Narco War invading Ted and Chris's life enables the reader to get a look at the brutal environment that many in Mexico suffer. Though the troubles in Juarez have calmed, what the book reveals can erupt at any time. The book even changed my vacation plans in that I am now going to spend a couple days in Cholula, Mexico.
I recommend this Novel to anyone who wants to learn about the troubles in the border area and loves action novels.

Ted Higuera is a series that I thoroughly enjoy reading. In series books you begin to identify with the character. This book was fast moving in pace, however, since I have visited different parts of Mexico on a regular basis, the reader must keep in mind that all of Mexico is not related to the incidents in this book. The Mexican people in general are happy, joyous, and celebratory. They love their families.

Ted Higuera #3
Martin on May 10, 2015
This is my third book in the series, and I am awaiting #4 later this year. The two main characters are hard working friends who always seem to find themselves solving problems. Now love interests are added for both Ted and Chris. The panther was an unexpected character in this book, but a good one. Please keep the series going.

I'm waiting for more! I find the characters so real and wish that they lived on the East Coast so I could meet them. The plots are good, the situations are well thought out, I like the intricate weaving of persons and places. Well done excitement!
