Thereâs mayhem in Mexico in this full-flavored mystery, the second book in The Neil Flambé Capers.
Teenage wunderchefâand budding detectiveâNeil Flambé heads to Mexico City to take part in the Azteca Cocina, a two-week battle of the chefs. But heâs off to an unsettling start: His box of secret ingredients contains a note that says his girlfriend, Isabella, has been kidnapped. He must lose in the final, or else sheâll be killed.
To save Isabella, Neil will need Larryâs knowledge of Mexican history and Spanish, Sean Nakamuraâs portable forensic lab, and Angel Jicamaâs mentorship. Heâll have to delve into Aztec history, symbolism, and even into the real ruins that are buried under the modern city. But time is ticking. Will he be able to figure out where Isabella is being held captive before itâs too late?
