Praise for the Havana Quartet "Overlaid with a rich smoky patina, an atmosphere that reeks of slums and riches, cigar smoke and exotic perfumes. Havana Black is a strong tasting book, a rich feast of wit and feeling." Independent "Drenched with that beguiling otherness so appealing to fans of mysteries of other cultures, it will also appeal to those who appreciate the sultry lyricism of James Lee Burke. " Booklist "Well-plotted second volume of the seething, steaming Havana Quartet... a densely packed mystery." Publishers Weekly
