I just finished The Reapers Line: Life and Death on the Mexican Border by 
Lee Morgan II.  This book tells a tale of life along the border in 
Arizona.  He speaks of the gritty details of people and drug smugglers and 
tells how bureaucrats and politicians really do not want to fix the 
problem, mostly for personal gain.
