Catherine Chagra and her two sisters, Cindy and Christa, were the darling daughters of Jimmy Chagra, the biggest pot dealer in the history of the U.S.A., and one of the kingpins of Las Vegas casinos in the 1970's. But after their father was arrested and his hundred-million dollars had disappeared, they were left penniless, at the mercy of a Texas society that vilified them. With the help of their principled mother before her tragic death, and haunted by the shadow of their father, "Dirty Darlings" is a portrait of courage as three women attempt to re-assemble the shattered pieces of their lives.

Too filthy to be a fairytale... I’m Prince Maximillian Rochartè of Bellèno. The tabloids claim I'm alpha, arrogant, but the reality is I make royal dilemmas disappear. The monarchy borrowed millions, loans are due, and an old-fashioned marriage of convenience might save us all. Lord Fontaine will fork over a fortune in exchange for marrying his beloved daughter Cici to my brother, playboy Prince Leo. I fly to the States and talk Cici into my scheme. She's down with it -- just needs a little time to clear up loose ends. I'm parked at a Chicago biker bar when I spot Vivian -- a pretty waitress who could be Cici's twin -- pour a pitcher of margaritas on some entitled a**'s head. She's out of a job. I hire her to impersonate Cici for a few weeks. Small problem -- Vivian's feisty, funny and our chemistry's off the charts. In spite of my unrelenting lust I somehow manage to turn her into a 'Lady.'

The areas along the U.S.-Mexico border are commonly portrayed as a hot spot for gang activity, drug trafficking, and violence. Yet when Robert J. Durán conducted almost a decade’s worth of ethnographic research in border towns between El Paso, Texas, and southern New Mexico—a region notorious for gang activity, according to federal officials—he found significantly less gang membership and activity than common fearmongering claims would have us believe. Instead, he witnessed how the gang label was used to criminalize youth of Mexican descent—to justify the overrepresentation of Latinos in the justice system, the implementation of punitive practices in the school system, and the request for additional resources by law enforcement. In The Gang Paradox, Durán analyzes the impact of deportation, incarceration, and racialized perceptions of criminality on Latino families and youth along the border. He draws on ethnography, archival research, official data sources, and interviews with practitioners and community members to present a compelling portrait of Latino residents’ struggles amid deep structural disadvantages. Durán, himself a former gang member, offers keen insights into youth experience with schools, juvenile probation, and law enforcement. The Gang Paradox is a powerful community study that sheds new light on intertwined criminalization and racialization, with policy relevance toward issues of gangs, juvenile delinquency, and the lack of resources in border regions.
