...Did Donald Trump write this? Because that would explain the cartoonishing evil Mexicans.

Seriously though, while the prose is solid, the concept is so over-the-top it comes off as goofy instead of scary. Kidnapping? Scary. Black-market organ harvest of a kid? A little over-the-top, but still scary. Harvesting a kids organs and then literally stuffing him with cocaine like a cartel-turkey on Thanksgiving? Friggin' hillarious.

What was the drug smuglers reasoning? Was there literally nothing else he could have hid drugs in? Did he somehow think it was going to be easier to smuggle drugs while also smuggling the corpse of a missing child? The more you think about it, the more ridiculous it gets. Like, seriously, this guy is the dumbest cartel smuggler ever.

Also, I find it interesting that a grown man was incapable of keeping up with his two-year old son on foot. Is he morbidly obese or something?
