Down the Rabbit Hole by Juan Pablo Villalobos is narrated by Tochtli, an 8 year old boy whose father Yolcaut is a cold-blooded Mexican drug lord who resides in a closely fortified mountain lair. The boy is also secluded to the point that he has only met a few people who work for or with his father. His closest companion is his teacher and the books that keep him engaged. Down the Rabbit Hole was an attention-grabbing read which held my interest for its 70 pages but I really think that that the length is perfect as if it had been longer I would have been bored.
