MADE IN ACAPULCO by Carmen Amato has been released to Kindle for $.99. The novella MADE IN ACAPULCO launches author Amato's Emilia Cruz novel series, in which Cruz -- Acapulco's first and only female police detective -- confronts Mexico's drug cartel violence and official corruption while investigating her own relationship with American hotel manager Kurt Rucker.
With hot nights on the beach and suspense straight out of the headlines, MADE IN ACAPULCO and the Emilia Cruz series go inside Mexico's drug war with a fearless, gritty style and a woman who'll be hard to forget.
The first full-length Emilia Cruz novel, CLIFF DIVER, will be released as print and ebook in November 2012.
To promote MADE IN ACAPULCO, the ebook version of Amato's daring political thriller THE HIDDEN LIGHT OF MEXICO CITY will be free to Kindle readers on 30-31 August. THE HIDDEN LIGHT OF MEXICO CITY pits the classic Cinderella story against Mexican corruption and violence while exposing the country's rigid class society. Released in April 2012 to 5-star acclaim by amazon.com reviewers, THE HIDDEN LIGHT OF MEXICO CITY has been called a must-read before America's next debate over immigration.
