VELVET WAS THE NIGHT - Silvia Moreno-Garcia

~ Trade Paperback

~ New Release - 2022

From Silvia Moreno-Garcia, the bestselling author of Mexican Gothic, comes Velvet Was the Night, a simmering historical noir about a daydreaming secretary, a lonesome enforcer, and the mystery of the missing woman they’re both desperate to find . . . 

An action-packed, intense, political thriller, Velvet Was the Night is also a story of two lonely hearts trying to survive in the wild, capturing a profound loneliness that propels them forward even when facing dangerous circumstances. 

“Velvet Was the Night is a noir with a heart of gold, and it’s a narrative in which the empathy we feel for its characters ultimately reveals an important truth: That Moreno-Garcia is not only a talented storyteller but also an incredibly versatile one.” -- NPR
