VELVET WAS THE NIGHT

New York: Del Rey, 2021. First edition. Hardcover. Signed by the author on the title page. Mexico in the 1970s is a dangerous country, even for Maite, a secretary who spends her life seeking the romance found in cheap comic books and ignoring the activists protesting around the city. When her next-door neighbor, the beautiful art student Leonora, disappears under suspicious circumstances, Maite finds herself searching for the missing woman-and journeying deeper into Leonora's secret life of student radicals and dissidents. 284 pages. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Item #15228
