Deserted Echo — Linda Kay Silva

Between the Mexican cartel, evil supernaturals, and the heat of the desert, Echo has her hands overflowing with trouble. When Echo agrees to interview a cartel member while vacationing with her students, she gets far more than a simple conversation. She is lured into a tangled web of dark lies and paranormal mysteries unlike anything she has ever encountered. With the help of Delta Stevens, Echo and company must find a way to neutralize the ever present threat of amoral terrorists who do more than sell drugs and murder innocents. When Echo finds herself held hostage in the scorching heat of the desert, she must rely on those who love her to not only find her, but fight their way out of an impregnable fortress. Will Echo be able to defeat the ever powerful cartel, and extinguish a malevolent supernatural focused on destroying her and everyone she loves? More importantly, can all of them make it out of the desert alive, or is this that horrible moment when Echo is forced to leave behind someone she loves?
