Blood's Echo by Isabella Maldonado
3.0
Good debut book by Isabella Maldonado.
Veranda Cruz works in law enforcement in Phoenix, Arizona. She is obsessed with fighting the drug cartels, especially the Villalobos cartel. Living in a country where the cartels are day to day news, it's very vivid and well described.
I like the strong character that Veranda is, I also love her family who stands together always, and that there's a love interest in the book.
My only "but" is that the Spanish expressions sometimes sound wrong to me, but I have to take into consideration that I'm a native Mexican speaker and that the Spanish in the book is different from mine, as it's Tex-Mex and the idioms and expressions are not the same.
Looking forward to Book 2 in the series.
3.5 stars
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
