Produktbeschreibung
When six migrants are massacred in the California border desert, reporter Ray Myers discovers babies had been traveling with them, babies now missing. This installment of the Ray Myers thriller series was inspired by true events of a gruesome murder involving the smuggling of infants for sale into the United States. As Myers infiltrates the underworld of human trafficking, unexpected twists and the compassion of one smuggler stand to threaten as well as aid the reporter as chaos erupts inside the tight-knit trafficking ring. Leads taking him across the border into the badlands of Baja Norte do not escape the smuggling cartel's kingpin, a deranged and now desperate ranking ICE administrator who forms grievous plans for the meddling reporter. White-knuckle suspense in this gritty thriller is acted out by an ensemble of sometimes savage, often humorous and romantic, and always realistic characters. Tragedy, murder and intrigue intertwine a fast-paced plot full of unexpected twists, delivering nuance to crime, true love and mayhem as Myers treks, wounded, through the seamy streets of Ensenada and into the land of an ancient Indian tribe in his search for lost babies. Library Journal says of Baby Love, "Argo's dramatic and gripping tale also manages to tug at your heartstrings. Readers cannot help but feel invested." "Highly entertaining … Readers will enjoy the huge, unexpected plot twists. An engaging mystery that delves into the visceral greed that drives human behavior."-Kirkus Reviews "This exciting, plot driven novel with all its twists and turns and colorful cast of characters would rivet thriller movie audiences, another of those books you can't put down once you get started … Argo gives readers many realistic characters to both love and hate." -Readers Favorite 5 Star review.

Autorenporträt
In the late 1980s, Ronald Argo published one of the more important novels on Vietnam, Year of the Monkey, a story painting a comprehensive and human canvas of the war. Before and after he served as a military correspondent in LBJ's war, he has worked as a psych-ward aide, a prize-winning photographer, a Florida Keys boat captain, an award-winning investigative newspaper reporter, and he restores old houses. Those among other constructive and nefarious occupations. Argo is the author of The Courage to Kill and The Sum of His Worth, both historical thriller novels, and both recipients of awards for thriller and literary fiction. He earned three university degrees including a bachelor's in Journalism, the Masters in English Lit and the MFA. Argo lives with his wife Mary and cow dog Prince in a community of San Diego where, like Voltaire, he tends his garden. Please visit Argo's website at www.ronargo.com.
