About the Book

A vacation isn't just a vacation--not when sleuthing journalist Gracie Barufaldi is the one on holiday! A quick break to Brazil's breathtaking Iguassu Falls finds Gracie caught up in a grisly murder mystery when her excision boat at the Falls comes upon a body. Since she is the first to spot, and find, the dead woman, Gracie is a key witness in the investigation; but she doesn't let murder spoil her trip. Along with her tour guide and new friend, Will, she explores many of the most intriguingly beautiful and culturally significant sights in the area. But all the while she is thinking about the murder case, and uncovering clues in her usual unconventional way. In 'Coercion, ' Gracie must navigate the delicate and often tricky relationship between collaborating law enforcement entities as she applies her unorthodox strategies to unraveling the puzzle of who killed the victim, and why. And she has to handle the equally tricky situation of her developing fondness for Will along with her nascent relationship with Jack back home. Jack, Berkshire County, Massachusetts' Chief Detective, has his own peculiar case to solve while Gracie's in Brazil, and each picks the other's brain about their respective criminal cases during phone calls back and forth. Part travelogue, part mystery and just a little bit romance, 'Coercion' exposes an anguished scenario and its ruinous denouement, a story that has become all too common in the U.S. and across the globe.
About the Author: The author of 'Coercion, ' Eugénie D. West, like her protagonist Gracie, is a news journalist for a weekly paper. This is the second, chronologically, in a series of books featuring Gracie, her on again off again boyfriend Jack, and several other intriguing--and some recurring--characters. 'Coercion' was inspired by the author's recent trip to Iguassu Falls, Brazil, and her stay at the Hotel das Cataratas, the setting for much of the action in the book. 'Coercion' is based, as are all of West's books, on a real crime. However, the treatment given the case in this book is fictional, with characters, details and outcomes that are not the same as those of the actual case in reality. West holds an MA in English and enjoys history, languages, music, science and travel. Like Gracie, she lives in a rural part of the northeastern U.S. and is an accomplished cook. She is a member of the Mystery Writers of America and the International Thriller Writers.
