PaperBack: “Tequila”

Part of a series honoring the late author and blogger Bill Crider .



Tequila , by Margaret Page Hood (Dell, 1952). American writer Hood (1892-1983) is likely best-remembered for penning a mystery series set along the coast of Maine, starring Gil Donan, a deputy sheriff on Fox Island. Tequila , with its story taking place in New Mexico (where Hood lived for many years), doesn’t appear to be part of the Donan line. Cover artwork by James Meese.
