Blood Relative cover

Pretty and popular, sixteen-year-old Mariah Ebinger is the typical American teen. Well, except for the weird dreams. And the helicopter phobia. And the—OK, this is pretty strange—the ability to speak Spanish. She’s, like, never even heard Spanish! But except for that stuff, totally typical. The terrible thing is that Rolando Carrera may be typical as well. His wife and daughter murdered by the death squads in Argentina’s “dirty war,” Carrera has crossed some terrible internal line. His grief, his rage…they have blended into a toxic cocktail of obsession with one single burning aim: Kill Mariah Ebinger.

“Hougan is a master” —Library Journal
“A fast-paced tale of obsession…Hougan’s sharp prose imparts urgency to her sensitively rendered account of all-too-plausible violence and its chilling consequences” —Publishers Weekly
