Description

Issy Castillo is overjoyed to land her first job teaching Spanish at a small university in her Boulder, Colorado hometown. Here she can pursue her academic dreams, reconnect with her Hispanic roots, and—who knows?—find true love.

But her life takes a decided downturn when she finds her chief romantic interest, the witty and personable theater professor, strangled in his office with her scarf. Discovered kneeling over the body, she becomes a prime suspect in the murder. Driven to clear her name and ferret out the killer’s identity, Issy becomes entangled in a sticky web woven from the threads of passion and pundonor, the Latino interpretation of honor and integrity.

Will Issy find the murderer before a second victim, possible Issy herself, succumbs to the killer’s devious plot?

First in the Latino crime fiction series starring spunky Latina college professor and amateur aromatherapist, the plot will keep readers guessing until the final curtain drops.
