seven spanish angels
Life isn’t easy in El Paso, Texas. Neither is death. Caught between them is crime-scene tech in-training Marta Villarreal, trying to work a case that may very well be her last. And she’s having to work it without her assigned homicide escort, who’s also kind of her boyfriend, and would look a lot more innocent if he would just come in, answer some questions about all these dead girls. Have the Juarez murders come north of the border now, or is it a copycat? And, why these women, why now? For as long as Marta can remember, the El Paso sun has baked the ground into a hard shell, so the dead can’t climb out. Not this week, though. This week the dead are all over town. And Marta may be among them.

reviews:
from Jeff Vandermeer’s Wonderbook:
Are they using the yellow thing as the cover or the old Rugged one?
they don’t own the Rugged Land one, so it’s the yellow one.
Oh man. I’d love to give that cover an effort. Do something sweet for it. May have to tinker on my own with some thoughts anyway.
