About the Book

Las Fantasticas or Las munecas de la mafia are women who rarely go unnoticed. During their time of glory, paraded at their husband's side, they travel in opulent vehicles decked out in the latest designer fashions and live in the lap of luxury. It just takes one second, one false move, however, and their entire life comes crashing down on them. Their man loses power, money and/or his freedom, and suddenly their golden dream turns into their darkest nightmare. Glamour and an affluent lifestyle give way to uncertainty, unease, and an inability to go back to a normal life.

Las Fantasticas were always the official women. They were owed respect and subservience. Never before had anyone told their story, had delved into their metamorphosis from simple, unassuming women into the partner of recognized criminals. The television series, named Las munecas de la mafia is one of Colombia's top viewed show since its release.
