Terrific read about a woman, a family and a secret !
One of my favorite authors... A mystery with a little romance added
I recommend this book to anyone
Amanda's past was hidden deep in her memory. She didn't know it was also the key to her future. Her father would never speak of her mother or of her family in New Mexico. He kept her far away. When he is gone she is alone and wants to find out the truth. She arrives at her grandfather's home and is met with suspicion and hate. They were family but strangers, and one of them was a murderer....
It looks and sounds good but I have not read it.
This was a very enjoyable book. I loved it.
Suspenseful and thrilling. I live in New Mexico and since this book is set very near my home town, I found it even more exciting.
These four books are a set in box "Rainsong", "Listen to the Whisperer", "The Turquoise Mask", and "The Ebony Swan"
I've read a few of her books and liked this because it wasn't predictable like the others
Beneath the New Mexico sun, an intense drama is unfolding. Amanda Austin has come to Santa Fe to learn the truth about her mother-who died mysteriously when Amanda was only five. She has come to face her mother's family, the Cordovas-and a part of her heritage kept secret from her since childhood.
It isn't going to be a pleasant truth to face. She knows this from the moment she enters her grandfather's house-a dark Spanish hacienda that seems to guard its ancient secrets like a tomb.
It is going to involve facing in herself the fiery Spanish blood of the Cordovas-that more than once over the years has erupted in jealous rage, cruelty, and possibly murder...
