Barbacoa, Bomba, and Betrayal by Raquel V. Reyes
5.0
The third installment in the captivating Caribbean Kitchen Mystery series, Barbacoa, Bomba, and Betrayal by Raquel V. Reyes is a delightful culinary mystery. Readers are whisked away to the sun-soaked shores of the Caribbean, where flavours, secrets, and danger intertwine. For those who don’t know, my mother was born in Trinidad and my maternal side of the family (including grandparents) came to Canada in the 1960’s.
Meet Miriam Quiñones. She is a cooking show sensation and amateur sleuth. She has sand between her toes and a murderer hot on her heels. The story unfolds against the vibrant backdrop of Punta Cana and Old San Juan, where palm trees sway, and mysteries simmer.
Reyes had me from the first page! This author skillfully blends culinary delights, cultural richness, and suspense in this page-turner. If you're a foodie, a mystery lover, or just simply seeking an escape to an island paradise, this story promises a tantalizing journey through flavours and secrets.
