Mission Driven makes for easy reading and through its vivid description of the areas in which Juanita operates it places you by her side as you accompany her on her journeys from the islands of the Caribbean through Central America and into the jungles of Amazonia, you will be hypnotized held spell bound as you live each mission with her. Mission Driven is a take off from my first very exciting book La Avispa (The Wasp). In that book Juanita, the main character, had vowed revenge on the Mexican cartel for the killing of her parents and siblings. She had decided that the best way to accomplish her task was to destroy the cartels from within. On taking out the main players of the cartel, responsible for destroying her family she thought it was over. But to her annoyance they tracked her down on the island of Jamaica, where she was attempting to settle and put her life back together. There they attempted to take her out, but she got the better of them. In Mission Driven she is flung back into action by that attempt on her life and this time she decided that she would be relentless in going after the cartels and other criminal organizations in the region. This time she would treat each exploit as a mission. She would be Mission Driven.

In dispatching her two last targets by means of the boat explosion, Juanita had kept a promise she made to herself after she had shot Pablo. She had vowed that the shot she had used to dispatch him would be her last shot in this line of work and except in a case of self-defense, would not return to that means of violence. Unfortunately for the two intruders they fitted that description perfectly, they were intruders and they were dealt with accordingly. She was satisfied that she had got her revenge and had also sent a clear message to the cartels. But then again, she would not allow herself to be lulled into complacency as she realized that in the same way she had been found by her two last victims, there might be others. She had to be ready. She was.
