Hoping to prevent her best friend’s suicide, Sydney Reardon rushes to Puerto Vallarta where she becomes entangled with witchcraft, a handsome Gringo lawyer, a New York cop, a huge black dog-and murder. This book, one of a series, was a selection of the Mystery Book Club. Her other books, also from Sunstone Press, are Little Green Man in Ireland and Three Deadly Days in Spain. Mary Branham was assistant director of the Wheelwright Museum of the American Indian in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Having bought numerous thick books at airport shops and left them on the plane unfinished, she determined to write a series of books that could be enjoyed on a flight of reasonable length and call them airplane books. * * * * It is a challenge to develop characters and action in such a narrow framework, but Mary Branham successfully integrates some interesting characters around Maude’s personality, which permeates the entire story. Mary Branham obeys one of the adages of writing: ‘write what you know.’ Her descriptions of Puerto Vallarta are interesting and show that she has spent considerable time there. She also does a nice job of working in a few side stories to keep the plot moving-big on dialog and relaxing for the brain. -The Midwest Book Review * * * * LIBRARY JOURNAL reported: Memorable characters, slick dialog, and almost whimsical settings make this a delightful short read…. -Library Journal
