“Lush and passionate with magnetic prose . . . The Intrigue will grab you by the throat and not let go until its earth-shaking finale!” —S. A. Cosby, author of King of Ashes
A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, People, Book Riot, Southern Living
Handsome con artist Ulises has long charmed lonely women via letters in order to steal their money, but money is hard to come by in 1940s Mexico. Ulises knows his looks won’t last forever, and he’s desperate to get his hands on a real fortune.
He thinks he’s found it when he captivates his newest correspondent, Perla, the owner of a small-town boardinghouse in picturesque Veracruz. But when he meets her, he finds something he didn’t expect. The woman has a niece, Inés, who is as observant as she is desperate to escape her aunt’s household.
When Inés discovers Ulises’s true intentions, she wants in on the scheme. They’ll convince her aunt that Ulises is a great catch, Perla will marry him, and her money will vanish. Easy, fast, and clean. But Perla is not the desperate, silly spinster Ulises imagines. She harbors secrets. And although Ulises does not believe in true romance, Inés is more alluring than he bargained for. Suddenly, a simple plan may become perilously complicated.
Venture into the streets of a small town where a patina of convention and good manners conceals a cauldron of avarice and lust.

Praise for The Intrigue
“A pulpy noir–telenovela mashup that would make James M. Cain jealous.”—Los Angeles Times
“Lush and passionate with magnetic prose, The Intrigue takes up the mantle of noir classics like Double Indemnity or Black Wings Has My Angel, and reinvigorates the genre with a new perspective. Silvia-Moreno Garcia writes with the soul of a sensualist and the eye of a practiced observer of human nature. The Intrigue will grab you by the throat and not let go until its earth-shaking finale!”—S. A. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of King of Ashes
“Silvia Moreno-Garcia has a great gift for making you cheer for things you shouldn’t, and The Intrigue is no exception. As the deception and the bodies mounted, I increasingly rooted for this Bonnie and Clyde to get away clean with the loot. Do they? Read and find out; you won’t be sorry!”—Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Alice Network
“[The Intrigue is] clever, taut, and just flat-out fun.”—Kirkus Reviews
