Made in Acapulco
| Carmen Amato
| With hot nights on the beach and suspense straight out of the headlines, MADE IN ACAPULCO and the Emilia Cruz series go inside Mexico's drug war with a fearless, gritty style and a woman who'll be hard to forget.
Emilia Cruz is the first and only female detective on the Acapulco police force. She’s a fighter who has figured out how to cope with a surly squadroom and a distant lieutenant. Until the day someone leaves a severed head in a bucket for hotel manager Kurt Rucker to find and a routine traffic case suddenly becomes a murder investigation.
On a winding road above Acapulco Bay, it’s clear that someone does not want the murder to be solved. Emilia and Kurt might survive the night, but daylight will be an entirely different situation.
MADE IN ACAPULCO debuts the Emilia Cruz crime novel series. As the savagery of Mexico's drug cartels violence encroaches on Acapulco, threatening to destroy the soul of the fabled Pacific coast city, Emilia will face challenges with a strength and resilience she didn't know she possessed. How she feels about Kurt Rucker is one of those challenges--and maybe the hardest to handle.
Grab a margarita and come on down to Acapulco . . . if you can take the heat.
