Missing women, abandoned children, and a crazy mariachi fan add up to further trouble for Andy Veracruz. After a fellow traveler disappears, he can't concentrate on vacationing. Worse, he's saddled with two children who aren't his, an angry would-be girlfriend, and a self-appointed younger brother who is more reckless than he is. No wonder he starts seeing double! Ransdell's fluid style allows Andy's story to unfold effortlessly. Besides providing a vivid insider's view of Durango, Ransdell demonstrates how the machismo attitude in Mexico warps the lives of women and children. J. L. Greger, author of I Saw You in Beirut "With his personal and professional life in a mess, Andy Veracruz's head is already spinning when he heads to Mexico and gets mixed up with a missing woman, missing children, and a mariachi fan who's missing a few screws. Murder, mayhem, and mariachi music... how else would you expect to find Andy 'Dizzy in Durango'?"
