Mexican Gothic by Sylvia Moreno-Garcia
Set in 1950's Mexico, this novel starts out slow (and I almost gave up on it) until it really picks up the pace around halfway through. My first thought upon completion was "Why hasn't this been made into a Netflix series yet?!?"
Naomi is a young socialite who's cousin has sent her a letter claiming that her English husband is trying to poison her. Suspecting that he is after her money, Naomi's father sends Naomi to get the lowdown on what's occurring.
What starts out as a run-of-the-mill horror novel, turns into something truly brilliant and interesting.
