Merryn Huntley is rudely awakened to the many bad decisions she has made in her life when she is told by two Dallas police officers that her wealthy husband Beau has been killed in a car accident, along with a local waitress. Merryn's first instinct is to flee in order to protect her nine-year-old daughter, and the only place that feels safe enough is her mother's beautiful, isolated home in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. The situation worsens when two FBI agents show up and begin to ask Merryn questions about her husband's business.

"At once a thriller, a psychological study, an experiment in technique and a portrait of the Mexican 'Hamptons, ' San Miguel de Allende....Smoothly plotted and compulsively readable. The narrative technique is brilliant and the characters leap off the page, vivid with life."
