Zipacna's Legacy by Cindy Davis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In Chi’pais Mexico the locals have knowledge of a vortex that attracts outsiders to their village. When Jade inherits a hotel in the village from her Grandfather, she sets out to refurbish the place and return it to its former glory. What she did not count on is a hostility from the locals, and a mystery that seems to surround the hotel as well as her grandfather’s personal life. One day 8-year-old Miguel shows up at her doorstep and awakens dormant powers in Jade that show her she may be able to have a bigger impact on the world than she ever imagined.
This was a very interesting book. The mysticism and the spirituality of the “old ways” was fleshed out and I found the villagers reactions to it all believable, especially considering what we do to others we do not understand in the “real world”. All in all, the mystery helps propel the book along, as its no action or romance book.
