MURDER MAYHEM & MEXICO By Brian L Porter
Summary
Mexico, land of the Aztecs, of mystery and legend is the setting for three exciting and very different tales of murder, kidnapping, and romance. "The Devil You Know" leads the reader deep into the mystery and intrigue of multiple disappearances of the choir members of a small town church. "Compliments of the Boss" sees a beautiful travel agent thrust into a frightening and dangerous situation. "Mexican Therapy" follows the exploits of an expatriate author who's rebuilding a shattered life on the beautiful Pacific coast. Using this dramatic and sometimes wild backdrop, the stories of Murder, Mayhem and Mexico will ensnare you.
Excerpt
He followed the Cougar from the time the woman left the hotel, keeping his motorcycle far enough behind her so as not to raise suspicion in her mind. Soon after she left the outskirts of Las Varas he made his move, accelerating past her and disappearing from view. Round a particularly sharp bend, he simply stopped the bike, laid it on the road, and assumed a prone position on the blacktop, to all intents and purposes the unfortunate victim of a skid from taking the bend too fast. Predictably, she stopped to help, and as she assisted the poor semi-stunned 'victim' to his feet, he exploded into action, the knife quickly appearing at her throat, subduing the woman in seconds. He forced her into her car and tied her wrists with plastic cable-ties. Taking the wheel of the Cougar, he'd driven her to this remote shack, well off the main highway, where Angelina now found herself securely tied hand and foot to a simple but sturdy wooden chair.
