Product Description
Product Description
A tale of murder wrapped in family secrets, potentially incestuous relationships, and a diabolic plot to avenge lost love, this intriguing mystery is set in San Antonio, Texas—a traditional city where races and ethnic groups blend. When Estela Valenzuela appears at the funeral of the patriarch of one of the oldest, richest families in town, she fascinates Jerry Grohman, the son of the deceased. Through Estela, he ventures into parts of the city he never knew, even one part that doesn't exist—Milagro Lane—the street of the mind and of inspiration, where one can only go in rare, fulfilling occasions.

Milagro Lane, Aug 30 2009
By Rose White "Mystery Reader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Milagro Lane (Paperback)
Intriguing story about an old well known family in San Antonio, but could be in any community. The mystery evolves from the beginning and does not end until the completion of the story. This author possesses an uncanny understanding of female thinking. He delights in writing about many of the old hangouts in San Antonio and brings a character to them that anyone would enjoy reading. It brings back memories of the way things were fifty years ago in our country.

Disappointing, Sep 5 2011
By DOROTHY D. CARR - Published on Amazon.com
Having previously read 10 Brandon books, I was disappointed in this one. He seemed to veer from his normal style. I found myself skipping through much of the silly/boring stuff. What happened to intrigue? Usually, I have a hard time putting his books down. Come back, Jay!!
4.0 out of 5 stars
a quick read, Aug 7 2009
By UTex "Amazon user" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Milagro Lane (Paperback)
Texans will enjoy this book, especially those with ties to San Antonio. It moves fast, the characters are interesting, and the local places mentioned make the story more real than fiction. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
