Enjoyable
"Cart of Death" is a culture-filled mystery novel. The main characters were smart, engaging, and fairly complex (though they didn't grow as people throughout the book). The low level of suspense throughout the story was created by the worry that the missing woman might end up dead if they didn't find her soon and from Christina being somewhat attracted to the new guy in town whom Mac (who's jealous) thinks may be a criminal. While I thought of the murderer as a suspect, I'd say this novel keeps you guessing about "who-done-it" until the end. (In response the the other review, I didn't think that the murderer who confessed was an obvious suspect, and I don't think most people would have positively identified that character as "the murderer" until then.)

The characters were mostly Hispanic, so some Spanish was used. The meaning of the Spanish words were usually obvious from the context, but there was also a glossary in the back. The Hispanic culture & Catholic faith and the upcoming festival provided a rich cultural backdrop to the story. While there were a few references to "he prayed" or "they attended mass," there was no obvious Christian message.

There was no sex. There was a minor amount of cussing and swearing (and that was mainly from one character). Overall, I'd recommend this enjoyable mystery.

By the end, the cart is dragging...
I was really enthused about this book at the beginning.The combination of Indian and Mexican lore was delightful, and the background of the festivals was fascinating.But it was down hill from there...the characters never really went anywhere and became one-dimensional.The plot deteriorated into some very trite gimmicks--a car chase, a river raft chase, a confession from the guy I figured did it, because the other guy was way too obvious.And the obvious other guy, named "Bottom" was really a bad guy too, he just didn't commit the murder.The last twenty or so pages were painfully slow and predictable, and I found myself wondering what was on my shelf to read next. ...

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on vehicles specially designed for travel on snow, golf carts, and similar vehicles in the United States face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying vehicles specially designed for travel on snow, golf carts, and similar vehicles to the United States? How important is the United States compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of vehicles specially designed for travel on snow, golf carts, and similar vehicles vary from one country of origin to another in the United States? On the supply side, the United States also exports vehicles specially designed for travel on snow, golf carts, and similar vehicles. Which countries receive the most exports from the United States? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?

This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for vehicles specially designed for travel on snow, golf carts, and similar vehicles in the United States. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for vehicles specially designed for travel on snow, golf carts, and similar vehicles for those countries serving the United States via exports, or supplying from the United States via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
