This is a lighthearted story of a group of friends who want to travel to America to find men that will come back to their village in Mexico to defend them from hooligans. The author seems to get off track every now and again but is able to bring it back in.

The main character, Nayeli, embarks on a journey to the United States to find The Magnificent Seven, to bring them back to Tres Camerones for protection and to help repopulate the town. Along with her on her journey are Yolo, Vampi, & Tacho. Tia Irma stayed behind and kept the home fires burning. What follows is a tale, at times funny and at times heartbreaking, of the quartets quest to find Nayelis father and the seven men they were convinced could save their town.
The story grew on me and about halfway through, I couldnt put it down.
