Milagro Lane

Intriguing story about an old well known family in San Antonio, but could be in any community. The mystery evolves from the beginning and does not end until the completion of the story. This author possesses an uncanny understanding of female thinking. He delights in writing about many of the old hangouts in San Antonio and brings a character to them that anyone would enjoy reading. It brings back memories of the way things were fifty years ago in our country.

a quick read

Texans will enjoy this book, especially those with ties to San Antonio. It moves fast, the characters are interesting, and the local places mentioned make the story more real than fiction. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Exquisitely written and well worth the read

Tragedy and heartache rarely occur in isolated incidents. "Milagro Lane" is a story of murder and intrigue, following what unfolds after an unexpected death. What spills forth is a spiraling plot that any mystery and thriller fan will very much enjoy. "Milagro Lane" is exquisitely written and well worth the read.

Didn't want to end

I've really enjoyed reading all of Jay Brandon's books, but really loved this one...I wanted it to go on forever.
