A Miracle in Paradise: A Lupe Solano Mystery (Lupe Solano #4)

Synopsis

The Lupe Solano mystery series continues with a “gritty and witty” (San Francisco Examiner) case that will test Lupe’s faith in more ways than one…Miami PI Lupe Solano has always considered her sister Lourdes an easygoing free spirit—unusual attributes for a Catholic nun. But Lourdes is quite tense when asking for Lupe’s help looking into the Order of the Illumination of the Sacred Virgin.Over the years, the Order gained a reputation for predicting verified miracles. Their latest claim is that a revered statue of a Cuban religious icon—the Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre—will weep real tears on Cuban Independence Day.But Lupe’s investigation into a possible religious hoax turns far from heavenly when people begins dying in eerily ritualistic ways. Someone is determined that the miracle of tears will go on without a hitch—and they’ll be damned if they’re going to let Lupe stop them.Praise for Carolina Garcia-Aguilera“A memorable tale of Cuban-American life, this novel boasts an engaging plot and a fiery heroine armed with sharp insights into Cuban and Catholic ways that will lead readers happily into the sultry heat of Little Havana.” —Publishers Weekly“Lupe Solano is intelligent, witty, and eloquently hard-boiled. The realistic Miami description radiates heat from the page.” —Booklist“Solano just happens to be one of the freshest protagonists to come along in the last few years… Garcia-Aguilera has built an interesting support team around her and Miami continues to be a terrific place to stage mayhem.” —Chicago Tribune؀
