Scent of Murder: An Issy Castillo Murder Mystery - Paperback

by Carolina Dow (Author)

Issy Castillo is overjoyed to land her first job teaching Spanish at a small university in her Boulder, Colorado, hometown. Here, she can pursue her academic dreams, reconnect with her Hispanic roots, and-who knows?-maybe find true love.

But her life decidedly takes a downturn when she finds her chief romantic interest, the witty and personable theater professor, strangled in his office with her scarf. Discovered kneeling over the body, she becomes a prime suspect in the murder. Driven to clear her name and ferret out the killer's identity, Issy becomes entangled in a sticky web woven from the threads of passion and pundonor, the Latino interpretation of honor and integrity.

Will Issy find the murderer before a second victim, possibly Issy herself, succumbs to the killer's devious plot?

The first in the Latino crime fiction series starring a spunky Latina college professor and amateur aromatherapist, the plot will keep readers guessing until the final curtain drops.
