BLOOD SACRIFICE

Rating:
Summary: Interesting, offbeat mystery set in the Yucatan.
Review: Gary Alexander's "Blood Sacriface" introduces us to a full blooded Mayan named Luis Balam. He sells touristy trinkets, and does tour guiding. Luis was also a traffic cop before a rich and powerful heir got away with murder due to corrupt higherups that let Luis go for pressing it. Luis now is hired by lawyer trying to find evidence on whether a missonary from Oklahoma is the serial killer "Gilbert", who kills young attractive women with a flint knife(possibly Mayan). Soon, Luis is warned to look away from the rich man who he tried to put away before, and he and the sister of the latest victim team up to see if the missionary was set up. Quirky characters, and a side of Cancun you have never seen. Good work of fiction
