Mask of Maya

Benito Adolfo de Alvarado is brutally murdered in the old town of Antigua, yet his body disappears. His cousin Luigi vanishes from a luxurious hotel near Maya National Park. During their inquiry, the investigators become aware of more gruesome deaths in the Alvarado Family lineage, some tracing back hundreds of years to the Spanish Conquest of Guatemala. In the brutal times of Mayan subjugation, one fearsome conquistador, Don Pedro de Alvarado, was so barbaric in his inhumanity that his tyranny was reported to the Holy Roman Emperor himself. Now, many years later, there is a trail of blood and death that haunts the Alvarado family. In the old historic sites of Guatemala, the vengeful ghosts of the wronged people seek their revenge on the Alvarados. Solving these killings drives the inquiry from the ruins of Mayan culture to the old Capital of Antigua. Can the Alvarado Family ever find sanctuary from the grim hand of vengeance?
