Adult Mystery
312 pgs.
Rating: 3.5/ Liked it quite a bit
Setting: Contemporary Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
1st Line/s: "Michelle dropped the sarong she'd strted to tie around her wist onto her lounge chair. Nobody cared what her thighs looked like."
OSS: Michelle's getaway to Puerta Vallarta to flee LA and a mess her deceased husband left her. becomes scary when she is robbed, arrested, mugged, and gets confronted by really unscrupulous characters.
She's alone, scared, has no one to talk to or trust, makes a few friends but is uncertain about all of them. She drinks a lot, makes a few questionable decisions, but it's a good mystery in a great setting. It's fun when you know the setting, and I could picture it quite well even though my faulty memory had to go back about 15 years to remember the city.
