This is a book to be read by the young - inspiring them to relate to their own point in time - struggling to stay balanced in their given heredity and culture - defining their future.Josephine Thraen, RN BSN_Ed, FNS-C Member, Society of Rogerian Scholars.
An entertaining, non-violent mystery set in the desert of Az
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This is a fun, easy-to-read and entertaining story of romance and intrique. There's nothing violent, bloody, or grizzly in it so you don't have shudder at horrific events. Nonetheless, you're captured by the story of Concha, the connection with Drew, and the added value of interesting facts about the history of the Southwest, particularly Tuscon, Arizona. I enjoyed the descriptions of homes and furniture, food and clothes, interior design and exterior landscapes. The book flows well and although it wasn't a book I couldn't put down for an instant, it kept my attention, I read it rapidly, and I was sorry when it came to its very fitting ending. I've recommended it to several friends who all have enjoyed it immensely, including people from places other than the Southwest!
Fascinating story set in modern Arizona of believable people

A page-turner in which all mysteries surrounding Concha are resolved in a non-violent but believable way. The story immerses the reader in Southern Arizona, Mexican culture and adobe architecture from the mid-19th century, the Mexican Revolution, to modern times. Each character seems real and keeps ones attention. You will find your neighbors and family members here!
Exciting, entertaining, enlightening. A great read!

Few beginning authors have the ability to successfully pull together the complicated genres of mystery and romance. Sedona Davis' book carries us smoothly from page to page as we attempt to solve the mystery. Her descriptions of southwestern life,intertwined within the story, add to the story rather than distracting from it. A most entertaining book. I thank her for writing it. One question - when do we get to ready her next book? Mabel R. Leo
