Pre-reading guide:
1. While you will probably get more from the book than just an exciting mystery story, keep in mind that it is primarily
that – a fictitious mystery story that you should read with that level of anticipation.
2. Be prepared to learn some Spanish along the way. I have found that my travels around the globe have been
enhanced when I am able to converse a little with the locals in their own language. They typically know English fairly
well, at least in the primary tourist spots, and they’re aware that I’m not fluent in their language. But it never hurts to try
to speak a little of their language; it can open many doors and hearts.
3. Read this book when you have ample time to read – not just 10 minutes while you’re waiting at the doctor’s office.
This will allow you to become a part of the story rather than just an outside observer.
4. Set aside any pre-conceived notions you might have about college students on vacation in Mexico or the people
who live in Mexico.

Sample questions for when you re-convene to discuss the book:
CAUTION: Before you read the Discussion Questions, keep in mind that some of them reveal pieces of the story.

Some snack suggestions to add to the enjoyment:
You're getting together to discuss a book set at the southern tip of Mexico's Baja peninsula, so why not give your
gathering the atmosphere of a Mexican Fiesta? (Ask 2 or 3 people to bring the refreshments so it's not a big task for
one person.)
1. Make taco salad, tacos, or enchiladas using corn tortillas to keep the menu gluten-free so more can enjoy!
2. For lighter fare, serve up chips and salsa -- have both a red salsa and a green one; garnish with cilantro.
3. Home-made guacamole (if fresh avocados are available) is a great addition to any dish or snack.
4. Serving margarita mix over crushed ice provides a refreshing taste without the alcohol (add tequila if appropriate).
5. Download some mariachi music to play in the background or buy a used CD with festive music.

How to get 15% and MORE for your own non-profit or for a favorite charity:
1. You will receive a check for 15% of the sales of the books you order for your club or group. That check can either
go to you for your own non-profit activities or you may designate to another charity -- that's up to you.
2. If you recommend Missing in Mexico to another club or group after your group has read it -- let me know who that
club or group is -- and I will send another check to you after they've ordered the books. You'll receive 5% of the sales
of books to that club or group (one check per recommended club or group, but you can recommend it to as many as
you want, and get 5% for each one!)

How to order the books for your club or group:
CLICK HERE to open the Group Order Form PDF file. Once you print and fill out the form, mail your check or money
order to the address on the form. Free USA shipping with orders of 10 or more books. Contact me for shipping cost for
