Identity Crisis — John Scherber

IDENTITY CRISIS

It's a backwards kind of case for the Paul Zacher Agency. Naming the culprit is easy, but what is the crime? And why is Paul's old nemesis, Antonio Trujillo (Brushwork) on the streets again? Life was so much simpler without him.

When the kinky tastes of a state governor open the door to an environmental disaster of cosmic proportions, Paul Zacher and his friends come up against a sinister conspiracy of government and industrial plotters. When they launch their secret weapon at Paul personally, a diminutive blonde with spiky hair and impossibly short skirts, Maya takes the field with deadly results.

It's vintage Zacher from start to unpredictable finish in this Murder in México mystery #8.
