Description Fiction. Latino/Latina Studies. In this third in a series, Oakland private detective Gloria Damasco witnesses a murder attempt on a woman recently released from prison ... A nicely curlicued plot — delving backward into family, history, and mysticism — keeps the pages flying. Strongly recommended — Library Journal. Gloria's third adventure is part mystery, part history, part travelogue, part spiritual speculation - a busy, many-layered invention - Kirkus Reviews.

Publisher Description

Was it a spectre from the past, some Aztec revenant that had inspired the Black Widow to kill her husband? Or do these chilling murders have more to do with the rights of property and inheritance, and mere greed? Who better than Gloria Damasco, that indomitable detective with a flair for clairvoyance, to unravel this intricate and pulsing plot?
