When a fatal bomb erupts, Britt Montero, a "Miami New" police reporter, finds herself in the middle of her biggest story so far, "The latest Britt Montero mystery involves the Miami News crime reporter in two cases.

In researching a story about the boy's disappearance, Britt uncovers a disturbing pattern in which a number of physically similar young boys have vanished.

N.Y.: Putnam, 1998. 1st edition with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. The 3rd Cuban-American PI Lupe Solano title. Miami "Despite the tacit disapproval of her body- and health-conscious cousin and co-worker, Cuban American investigator Lupe Solano, last seen in Bloody Shame (LJ 2/1/97), takes a case involving a raft refugee from Cuba. Aristocratic Luis Delgado's long-dead parents sent part of their wealth to Miami with friends when Castro took over, but when Luis claims the money, the now-prominent "friends" try to erase the debt by hiring a hit man. Lupe treads carefully, both because of the family's influence and because she finds her client attractive. Lupe's energetic lifestyle, her fascinating friends, and the author's fluid segues make this an essential purchase." -- Library Journal. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Book.
