This week on Crime Wave: My guest is Carmen Amato, author of the Emilia Cruz series. In BARRACUDA BAY, the latest addition, Detective Emilia Cruz \u2014 Acapulco\u2019s first female homicide cop \u2014 uncovers the body of the mayor\u2019s sister in a run-down property linked to a covert anti\u2013drug operation. As pressure mounts to close the case, Emilia is unexpectedly sent to Washington, D.C., where she walks into a deadly setup. Framed and hunted by impostor lawmen, she must rely on her <\/a>instincts and former enemies to stay alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
