Burning Water by Mercedes Lackey

31Mar. Kindle.

One of her supernatural thrillers featuring Diana Tregarde. Diana is a "practitioner" whose second job is consulting on issues regarding the occult. She actually makes her living writing romance novels. I've read a couple of these (Diana Tregarde stories, not Diana's romance novels) and somehow they never quite seem to have the depth or complexity of plot or character that her SF has.

In this one, one of the old gods of the Aztecs takes over an American visiting Mexico City. He returns to Dallas with his four handmaidens and all hell breaks loose. A cop investigating the gruesome murders had worked with Tregarde back during their college days and calls her in to help.
