"Sonora Pass" by Jaime Olmos is a great story about friendship between characters that have stayed friends since college. It is also about a murder mystery among these friends and the investigation that goes on to find the killer. Congratulations on being BOTD.

Thank you for the review. "Sonora Pass" by Jaime Olmos and Kevin Nichols seems like an intriguing read with a focus on friendship and reunions. The historical fiction aspect also adds to its appeal.

Romance, crime, and mystery blend in this graphic novel. The red herrings from the narrative and the facial expressions from the graphics appear to contribute to the mystery and suspense of the story.

I enjoy uncovering mysteries as well as adventures. The aspect of friendship gives the book an inspiring touch. Considering the fact that the book started with the divorce, I agree with the reviewer that readers would look forward to some closure on the matter.

A fine review! I know I'll be expecting a true use of Spanish and not just some words here and there for flavor. I appreciate you pointing out there are unresolved plot issues such as the divorce though, I'll keep an eye out when I read it myself!
