My Review:


Summary –

Sofia must stop a spree of murders in her exclusive hotel before she becomes the next victim. Sofia runs one of the top resorts in Cancun. She works tirelessly to make it THE destination spot. When guests rave about what a glorious place it is, she feels proud. All of her hard work, though, goes up in smoke when a rash of devious abductions/killings take place. Now, she’s balancing the police, calming guests down, and saving the resort from ruin. Not knowing if the killer is an employee, guest, or local, she treads carefully. Partnering with a visiting professor, together they investigate. The police focus on the professor and his motives so Sofia must determine if he is in fact the killer or if the killer is someone else. With time running out and the killer setting its sights on Sofia, will she catch the killer in time?
