Des coups de feu, des cris, des pleurs, des bruits de pas… Lydia tente d’étouffer les bruits en pressant la paume de ses mains sur les oreilles de son petit garçon, Luca. Ils n’ont aucune idée de ce qu’il se passe au-delà de la porte des toilettes dans lesquels ils se sont réfugiés. Quand le silence revient, ils sortent et découvrent le massacre. La fête de famille a viré au drame, tous les convives de la quinceanera sont morts, baignant dans leur sang, transpercés par les balles du cartel le plus puissant d’Acapulco.
Lydia comprend vite ce qu’il s’est passé ; son mari, journaliste d’investigation, a révélé dans un article l’identité du baron de la drogue local. Seuls rescapés de la tuerie, elle comprend qu’elle et son fils ne sont plus en sécurité dans sa ville et son pays et décide de rejoindre les États-Unis.
Commence alors une course poursuite où la mère et le fils rejoignent le flux des migrants pour échapper au cartel. Un chemin de croix où ils rencontrent des hommes et des femmes qui eux aussi fuient la misère et la violence, laissant derrière eux leurs racines et leurs familles.
En évitant l’écueil du misérabilisme et des clichés toujours mieux partagés, Jeanine Cummins donne un visage et une histoire à ceux que l’on perçoit comme une masse indifférenciée : les migrants. Aussi rythmé qu’un thriller, l’auteure offre une galerie de portraits révélant toute la complexité du phénomène migratoire en Amérique.
C’est à la fois Les raisins de la colère de Steinbeck, Cartel de Don Wislow et No country for old men de Cormac Mc Carthy.
