Twelve-year-old Mila, mother unknown, father killed by Mexican federales, knew she had to be useful to the cartel. One must be useful to eat. Mila taught herself English so she could go across the border with compatriotas to deliver the cartel's wholesale drugs.It was a good job. And, using a computer and TV her father previously bought, Mila studied when she wasn't working.Until a delivery went bad.Other cartel members were murdered by retail drug sellers, but Mila was "spared"-- to be sold to a powerful American political figure. The best laid plans of mice and men though go astray, aided by an unfortunate deer in the middle of a dark back Texas road.An ordinary man, a doofus really, stopped to help the wrecked car and injured deer. Street-smart Mila sees an opportunity. The injured deer is dispatched. As are the two men escorting her to the pedophile.
