Operation Familia

ISBN: 978-0-915745-96-8

When Dina Salazar learns that her Mexican-born grandmother has a shameful secret--a son Grandma Gomez had to abandon in Mexico sixty years before--she is reluctant at first to get involved. The uncle she has never known has died mysteriously--killed, her grandmother believes, by a rival in the Juarez drug cartel. And Abuelita’s granddaughter, Teresa--Dina’s Mexican cousin--is in danger and is on the run.

To Dina’s dismay, her grandmother urges HER to find out where her granddaughter and great grandson are seeking refuge. Her grandmother tells her that Dina is the only one that can rescue Teresa and her son, for Dina is the only one who speaks fluent Spanish.

What’s a girl to do when la familia calls?

—A psychic thriller.  A bloodline of psychic women become the targets of ruthless kidnappers.  With the help of a handsome stranger, it takes all of Athena’s clairvoyant powers to discover the mastermind behind a rash of abductions.
