I really enjoyed this series when I read it years ago, and revisiting the first book again was fun. The writing and dialogue are so witty and intelligent. The characters are diverse, interesting and easy to love. There is some fascinating history involved. The mystery really keeps you guessing. There is some light romance as a subplot. One jalapeño out of five. This book is really fun. Highly recommend.
