Introducing Rick Gage: Murder in La Paz and Death Mask of the Jaguar by Murdoch Hughes
With these two thrillers we find ourselves in the world of hard-boiled private eyes - a la Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler - but with a difference. Both stories are squarely set in Mexico. Murdoch Hughes has created a private eye, Rick Gage, who has given up his former career as a detective in Los Angeles to get away from the stress and violence he experienced there and moved to La Paz. However, with these two books, Rick encounters enough stress and violence to fill any number of careers. But he's a tough guy. He can take it.

The U.S. Border Patrol records half a million yearly arrests of illegal immigrants here, accounting for almost half of all its arrests.
