Murder at the Mesa Roadhouse - Paperback

by Jere' Franco (Author)

When Shea Chan, a young, pregnant widow, arrives in Mesa, Texas, she encounters a town that is stunned by the recent murder of a popular waitress at the Mesa Roadhouse. Although there are plenty of suspects to go around, including all the restaurant employees, the real problem is motive. Why would someone come in to rob the restaurant and leave without the money in the safe? To complicate matters, an elderly maid is attacked and another waitress disappears. Is a psychotic transient loose in the sleepy border town? Or is somebody within the town after something involving the murdered waitress? Along with police officer, David De Vargas, Shea unofficially snoops while David officially investigates the murder. While the widow is determined to discover the truth, the officer is just as determined to protect her. Each chapter includes Spanish translations and a regional recipe.
