In Mantequero book 1, June Blacker went to Spain on holiday, and found the love of her life. He was a man with a unique taste in women. He loved big women, it’s another matter that his love drained them.Book 2, Disappeared, starts with Allison, June’s colleague at the school who’s worried when the term starts and the dedicated June is a no-show. With the help of Heather, an overweight and attractive friend of June’s, she investigates the disappearance of the missing teacher. The search leads them back to a small village in Spain, where June’s trace ended.The hushed whispers and warnings of the Spanish villagers don’t deter the ladies, what does is Heather’s condition.I liked book 1, but Disappeared added a depth to that myth/legend that I loved it even more. The book has an atmosphere of friendship, creepiness, and odd romance.And that ending! I had to read the last paragraph twice to make sure I didn't misunderstand :-)There simply has to be a book 3.Engrossing, well-written, and simply a book that demands to be read. Do so, it won’t disappoint.
