While in Mexico Adrian engages in numerous activities to try and bring the killers to justice, including going undercover as a factory worker in hopes of offering herself as bait to the killers, as well as trying to help a surviving victim and fellow factory worker.
Best part of story, including ending: I like it because it was based on true events.

Best scene in story: The end when Adrian quits her job for one with the local newspaper in Mexico.

Opinion about the main character: She was driven to get justice even if it meant negative things happening to herself.
