Cry in the Night
The national bestselling author of What the Cat Saw delivers an all-new mystery of intrigue and danger in the shadowy world of international art theft.
Egyptologist Sheila Ramsay develops a newfound interest in MesoAmerican affairs after meeting an outspoken—and attractive—Mexico City curator, a harsh critic of museums that deal in stolen art. And her own museum gives her the perfect opportunity to see him again: a valuable Aztec manuscript needs to be returned to its rightful owners, the wealthy Ortega family.
But things don’t go as planned for Sheila south of the border. An anonymous note threatens her with death if she remains in Mexico City. The curator she longed to see treats her with contempt. And the Ortegas are as mysterious as they are charming. What Sheila has stumbled into is much bigger—and more deadly—than she ever dreamed. And amid the splendor of Mexico’s ancient ruins and treacherous hillsides, Sheila will realize that there’s no one she can trust... -- From The Best Reviews

"Author Carolyn Hart is a master at creating atmosphere. When I think about CRY IN THE NIGHT, I think of shadowy and oppressive nights and too-bright, colorful days. Hart's vivid descriptions captured the look and feel of the Mexico of my imagination...." - Auriette Lindsey for Fresh Fiction
"Hart’s writing is always strong and the plot moves swiftly with many suspicious characters thrown in for an unexpected conclusion. Readers will be pleased by this new mystery that educates as it entertains with subtle humor and an unwavering, strong and very admirable heroine. She may have been initially motivated by infatuation, but Sheila ultimately acts out of respect and compassion for a culture that is gone but never forgotten." - Cynthia Chow for King's River Life
