Inspiration
Pérez-Reverte, author of the novel, has stated that a great source of inspiration was Mexican narcocorridos (drug ballads),[59] country-polka songs that tell the stories about real life Mexican drug lords.
One of the real-life characters who inspired the novel is Sandra Ávila Beltrán,[60][61][62][63] known as the "Queen of the Pacific", famous for being one of the first female drug traffickers to reach the level of "boss" in the Mexican cartels, a place usually reserved for men.[64]
