Beschreibung
A bitter past drives Acapulco's first female police detective into a Hollywood film starring lies and murder when she goes undercover to catch a killer.
As the camera rolls, Detective Emilia Cruz will face her toughest case yet.
After witnessing the execution-style murder of a taxi driver, Emilia replaces him behind the wheel. Undercover with a false identity, her target is a shadowy gang extorting protection money from the upscale taxi service.
Oddly enough, no one in Acapulco has heard of the gang. The homicide investigation is soon stuck in neutral. Yet the threat of another murder has all the drivers, including Emilia, scared to death.
But when Emilia's worst enemy gets into her taxi, both her life and the murder case accelerate out of control.
Next stop, a movie set where a second undercover role awaits.
The script is a nightmare. The director's cut is a double-cross. The leading man has looks that could kill.
Can Emilia act her way out of murder?
Could you?
"A thrilling series" - National Public Radio
"Darkly thrilling and accomplished . . . A brave, defiant character who's so vividly drawn that she fairly bounces off the page." - BookViral
Poison Cup award, Outstanding Series 2019 and 2020 -- CrimeMasters of America
Acapulco, once the glittering playground of Hollywood's Rat Pack, now has the highest homicide rate in Mexico. Loaded with intrigue and action, the Detective Emilia Cruz police procedural mystery series takes on cartels, corruption and social inequality.
Carmen Amato's 30-year career as a CIA intelligence officer serves up authentic and thrilling mystery crime fiction loaded with danger and deception. Fans of police procedural murder mystery series by Ian Rankin, Jo Nesbo, Ann Cleeves, and Peter May, as well as the Department Q novels and Don Winslow's cartel and border thrillers set in Mexico, also love Detective Emilia Cruz's complex plots, fast action, pulse-pounding suspense, and exotic location.
With unflinching authenticity drawn from the author's own counterdrug experiences in Mexico and Central America, this is a female police detective mystery series like no other.
