From Silvia Moreno-Garcia, the New York Times bestselling author of MEXICAN
GOTHIC, comes UNTAMED SHORE, a dark cocktail mixing a nuanced coming-of-age
story with a classical noir.
'Brutality takes on an almost divine quality' LA Review of Books
Baja California, 1979: Viridiana spends her days under the harsh sun, watching
the fishermen pulling in their nets and the dead sharks piled beside the
seashore. Her head is filled with dreams of romance, travel and of a future
beyond this drab town where her only option is to marry and have children.
When a wealthy American writer arrives with his wife and brother-in-law,
Viridiana jumps at the offer of a job as his assistant, and she's soon
entangled in the glamorous foreigners' lives. They offer excitement, and
perhaps an escape from her humdrum life. When one of them dies, eager to
protect her new friends, Viridiana lies - but soon enough, someone's asking
questions. It's not long before Viridiana has some of her own questions about
the identities of her new acquaintances.
Sharks may be dangerous, but there are worse predators nearby, ready to devour
a naïve young woman unwittingly entangled in a web of deceit.
