Mexican Gothic

by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

New Book of the Week , August 10, 2020

How about some chills to cool you off this summer? Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia fulfills the eerie haunted house genre perfectly. After society girl Noemí receives a strange letter from her newlywed cousin Catalina, she treks to a remote mining town in the Mexican hills to investigate her cousin's sanity. A decrepit Victorian mansion in the foggy woods, strange rumors about the odd family within, and the ever-present whiff of danger make for a very fun page-turner that will keep readers guessing.
