The Watcher In The Pine by Rebecca Pawel

The third Carlos Tejada investigation

Spain, 1940: Potes, a remote northern mountain village, is Carlos Tejada's first independent Guardia Civil command. He soon discovers that this "promotion" is a mixed blessing. The villagers are unwelcoming. He and his pregnant wife, Elena, have no place to live but the jail, and his own men seem strangely hostile. Is it just their suspicion of his wife's Republican sympathies? Or is there more going on in the beautiful but bleak area, recently devastated by the civil war? Tejada discovers that there may, indeed, be a new outbreak of that war with Potes as its epicenter. And he must find a way to reconcile his love for his wife with his duty.

Rebecca Pawel is a PhD candidate in English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University in New York City. Death of a Nationalist, her critically acclaimed debut novel, earned the Edgar Award for Best First Novel and was a nominee for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, as well as being named a best book of the year by the Chicago Tribune, Publishers Weekly, and the Detroit Free Press.
