Blurb

Scream meets Halloween on Cinco de Mayo…

¡Feliz cumpleaños, Karla Palomares! Today is Cinco de Mayo, and today is also Karla’s nineteenth birthday. She’s glad to be home for the weekend in the “Mexican Beverly Hills.” Glad to have left college for a couple of days. Glad to see her girlfriends. She isn’t thinking about the horrible piñata prank the kids of Friendly Hills did to Pedro Gonzalez ten years ago…

¿Te acuerdas de Pedro Gonzalez? Remember him? Chubby, little Pedro? Who wore the silver luchador mask? Who had the crazy crush on Karla? He and his mom left Friendly Hills after that cruel piñata prank. Now Pedro is back for a night of murderous revenge, although he isn’t chubby or little anymore…

Psycho de Mayo is a Cinco de Mayo slasher novel that’ll keep you turning pages and guzzling margaritas until the murderous end.
