Andrew C says:
A coming-of-age noir tale with a deceptively tranquil surface. Moreno-Garcia conveys mood and motive just as convincingly as she weaves genres.
Facing limited prospects in 1979 Baja California, a young woman from a poor fishing village becomes entwined in the lives of three wealthy American tourists before the death of one is complicated by revelations about their true identities.

I'm an adult services librarian and I seem to find a new book for my reading list around every corner. Just don't count on my reading them all, since I like to take my sweet time becoming fully immersed in each story and subject (whether fictional, historical or technical) once I'm hooked. Otherwise, you'll find me cartooning, dreaming up new stories and hitting the trails of Ohio for more hiking and nature-watching.
