A Death In Mexico

By: Woods, Jonathan

A voluptuous artists' model is murdered, her mutilated body dumped in the central plaza of a colonial Mexican town. Inspector Hector Diaz's murder investigation takes him deep into the town's gringo expat colony, a modern Mexico corrupted by greed and drugs and the byways and dead-ends of love and lust. Recalling Michael Chabon's The Yiddish Policemen's Union in its dark humor, moody atmosphere and sense of place, A Death in Mexico is a gritty and gripping quest for revenge and redemption.

"A Death in Mexico is a great and telling ride south of the border into madness and mayhem. I loved it."

-Michael Connelly

"Woods' twisted scenes had me laughing in wonderfully inappropriate ways."
