Author Description

If you are looking for a 21st Century Spanish language thriller, for crime fiction that mesmerizes as it tantalizes, MAZUNTE is the book for you. In Mazunte, Julio Flores has been living in California for more than ten years. When his sister is suddenly presumed dead after a boating accident in Mazunte, Mexico, he must return to his native Costa Rica to deal with her will. A year later, he travels to Mazunte to search for her. The novel alternates between these two stories, two worlds that blur the lines between dream and reality, the present and memory. Part thriller and part metaphysical reflection, transnational in its scope yet deeply personal and poetic, Mazunte questions the paths we have chosen, as well as all we have left behind.
