About All The Broken Girls:

Cuban American crime reporter Mari Alvarez is on a personal hunt for a killer who leaves a broken doll at every scene. She's about to become the killer's prey and she'll need more than the azabache charm her Abuela Bonita insists will protect her from evil. By-the-book homicide detective Tony Garcia needs more than a superstitious journalist's hunch there's a serial killer lying in wait in their West Tampa neighborhood. He needs proof. Working against the clock, Mari and Tony explore a hidden, Old World Cuban religion to break the case of all the broken girls.


About the author:

By day, Linda Hurtado Bond is an award-winning journalist with Tampa’s Fox 13. By night, she’s an award-winning author of thrillers. She’s won 13 Emmy awards, numerous Society of Professional Journalists and Associate Press awards as well as a Florida Bar award and an Edward R. Murrow award. A breast cancer survivor, she’s also active in the Tampa community with the American Cancer Society, Hooked on Hope, and The Shoot for a Cure, raising money and awareness any chance she gets. Linda met her husband Jorge while on assignment in Cuba, covering Pope John Paul the Second's visit with Fidel Castro. Twenty-some years later they've raised five kids - a doctor, a nurse, a pilot, a paramedic firefighter, and an aspiring psychologist. Linda is a graduate of the University of Georgia, and her baby is heading to the rival University of Florida. A lover of drama and conflict (in books) Linda now has a divided house. It’s a busy life! But she also finds time for her passions, her husband Jorge, world travel, classic movies, and solving a good mystery.
