Just two, maestro?? I wasn’t sure how the story would go with them back in DC after all the excitement of México DF. But, yet again, Carlos eliminates my doubts. This chapter is wonderful, really good. One small thing story wise, yes CJ is, of course, old enough to deal with Pam, but Ozzie staying silent and leaving it to him? It’s in character but if my late-mother were bad-mouthing my husband I’d have a few things to say in private - like get back to the vineyard!
The fact that readers like me get emotionally involved with imaginary characters is a tribute to a writer’s skill. ¡’Eres un crac, Carlos!
