I enjoyed reading this book but at the same time I was disappointed. On one hand there was a good story here. The author does a nice job at keeping you engaged. The downfall was that the synopsis of the book didn't really match up with what was in the book. It sounds like this is going to be a crazy ride with ghosts and killer cartel groups. It is, but most of that doesn't happen until the end of the book. You have the nagging ghost but for most of the story, you learn about Rita and her family, flashing back to the past then coming into the present. Like I said, this was nicely done but not what I was wanting. Hopefully if Rita's story continues, we'll get more action and less backstory since we know all about her now.
