Ho-hum. Expats getting drunk and screwing in some remote mountain town in Mexico.
It starts to get decent in the last third or so, once it moves on from "hey, here's a more-typical-than-funny bar story" to some perfunctory character development.
Wintner is a keen observer and a decent writer; he just doesn't seem to have a whole lot to write about.
