Publisher's summary

This program is read by Danny Pino, best known for his roles on Cold Case and Law & Order: SVU.

Blood in The Cut brims with dangerous energy in the face of existential entropy. A fantastic story.”—S. A. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of All the Sinners Bleed

Iggy Guerra is out of prison, but his homecoming is anything but smooth. His beloved mother is gone, his grief-stricken father Armando is deep in debt, and they are about to lose the butcher shop that has been in their family for generations.

Iggy must earn his father’s lost trust in order to save La Carnicería Guerra from the threats imposed by a new rival business, a vigilante activist, and big-game hunter Orin, who has dragged Armando into his dangerous money-making schemes deep in the Everglades, where more than secrets are buried. Iggy will wrestle with the beauty and the danger of the place he calls home as he tries to save his family—without losing himself forever.

Sharp as a butcher knife gleaming in the Miami sun, Alejandro Nodarse's Blood in the Cut opens onto a deeply personal vision of the streets and swamps of Miami, where the roots are crooked but strong as mangroves.

A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books.

Critic reviews

Publishers Weekly’s Best Books of Summer

Publishers Weekly starred review

“A standout debut. . . He enhances the action with indelible descriptions of the Florida setting that underline the state’s intoxicating blend of beauty and danger. S.A. Cosby fans, take note: this jagged Southern neo-noir is not to be missed.”Publishers Weekly, starred review

“Heat practically radiates off the page. . . With indelible descriptions of its Miami setting and a three-dimensional look at life in the city’s Little Havana neighborhood, this hard-nosed thriller heralds the arrival of a major new talent.”Publishers Weekly, Best Mystery/Thriller Books of Summer

“Alejandro Nodarse's Blood in the Cut brings to vivid life a Cuban-American world that has been invisible in literature—until now. A place of illegal hunters and deadly swamps, of competing allegiances and the violences at the brutal heart of exile. Mr. Nodarse writes with rare insight, sensitivity, and beauty. An extraordinary debut!"—Cristina García, author of Dreaming in Cuban, a finalist for the National Book Award
