- A Mystery Twenty Years in the Making (Hispanic American Fiction, for Readers of Next Year in Havana)

Bag om The Miracle of Saint Lazarus

One Woman Works to Uncover the TruthA few weeks after Hurricane Andrew wreaks devastation and havoc across South Florida, a mother suffers the ultimate devastation: losing her husband and their infant daughter after he crashes their car into a canal. The man's body is recovered, but the baby girl is never found. Twenty-three years later, alleged sightings of the child have accumulated, and top-notch Detective Maria Duquesne is assigned to the cold case. Working with few clues, the questions begin: Is it really possible that the girl has not died? Or is this simply the persistence of a desperate mother who will not accept the death of her daughter? As Duquesne follows long frayed threads through the distinctive and colorful neighborhoods, of Miami, Tampa, and New York City, her tenacity as a seasoned detective, and her empathy as a mother, make her the perfect sleuth, and readers' companion, through Uva de Aragón's twisting and captivating whodunit. "This is a solid mystery with an impeccable ending that will hook you from the first line."-Teresa Dovalpage, and author of, among others, the detective novel Death Comes in through the Kitchen
