Описание: Teresa Dovalpage's deliciously twisted novella, set on a Caribbean cruise, showcases the dark--sometimes deadly--side of celebrity.

Former Havana detective Marlene Mart nez, now happily running a bakery in Miami, has booked a week-long cruise to Mexico and the Caribbean with her niece, Sarita, as the girl's quincea era present. Sarita is beyond thrilled to discover that a Cuban telenovela star, Carloalberto, is also aboard for the trip.

But even while trying to keep her niece away from the unsettlingly handsome actor, Marlene gets the feeling Carloalberto is in some kind of trouble--he is constantly on edge, and shady characters seem to find their way to him. When murder occurs aboard the North Star, Marlene will rely on instincts she hoped never to use again.

Описание: Set between Cubas twenty years apart, Havana native Teresa Dovalpage's latest novel features an unusual detective--an ex-cop turned Santer a priest and a familiar face from her critically acclaimed crime fiction debut, Death Comes in through the Kitchen

Padrino, a former detective on the Cuban police force, has retired and found a new, happy life as a Santer a priest. But he is drawn back in for a murder investigation when his goddaughter, Rosita, who works at the local cemetery, recognizes one of the bodies that crosses her embalming table.

Meanwhile, an old flame of Rosita's, Juan, has returned to Cuba after fleeing by raft twenty years ago. He is with his American wife, Sharon, and has come back to catch up with his old college circle--Victor, his estranged best friend, and unbeknownst to Sharon, his most serious ex-girlfriend, Elsa, with whom he never quite fell out of love.

When murder occurs within this group, it will cost Padrino more than he expects to untangle everyone's lies and track down the killer.
