A Trip To Mexico Becomes The Vacation From Hell. Ethel Cunningham needed a break from the weather in New York, her coffee shop, boredom and a certain handsome, but married detective. When her friend Jim suggested Mexico, Ethel fantasized about warm weather, hot men and cold margaritas. What she got was murder... Once in Mexico, Jim talked her into taking a boat ride to the infamous island of the dolls, Ethel thought it would all in good fun. When a passenger gets killed aboard the colorful trajinera, Ethel realizes as they sail along through the murky canals, no one aboard the boat is who they seem to be, and maybe she should have packed a weapon instead of an extra pair of high heels. As they reach their destination the people aboard are shocked to see hundreds of dolls hanging--many by their necks on every tree and bush. Most of the plastic faces have been burned by time and the sun. Soon the passengers notice all the doll eyes are in excellent condition, and focused, on them.
