a novel by Erica Fuentes & Annemarie Stonewater During its one hundred year reign as one of the best Roman Catholic boarding schools in the country, Villa Vistamar was home to many young women —particularly politically vulnerable, but wealthy young women— from all parts of the world. Brought back by a class reunion, two former resident students haunted by the unexplained mysteries encountered in their youth, have set out to expose the secrets of the old Southwestern estate and the strange relationship between the Sisters of St. Thomas and their benefactor. Convinced that the key to the mysteries must be hidden away in the macabre old trunks that fill the basement of the old convent, a late-night escapade into the catacombs of the old abbey literally swallows them into —and past— the point of no return from their journey into Church history and intrigue. Several frightening encounters with Church Sentinels guarding the very secrets that the women have determined to unshroud, along with the death of an elderly nun and former Mother Superior of the order, leads the women to the discovery of a cache of priceless jewels that protect a far greater treasure; that which the Church has shielded from the world for nine decades of Eastern European history, under the ecclesiastical code name of Salve Regina.

a novel by Erica Fuentes Shakedown unveils the hidden faces of power through the history of Carolina, Susana, Lorena and Tanya, four strong women very close to the world's decision makers against the backdrop of Mexican politics. It is a novel rich in conspiracies, romantic capers, international corruption, complicity, dangers, secrets and the shadiest side of power. Throughout the plot, the four girls unravel mysteries of the country's public life and world politics, after receiving a unique message that reinforces their complicity, illuminates their passions and builds a strong friendship adventure. The boundaries between politics and its personalities, as well as personal travails and zest, meet in a single story full of nuances, where in the end all the pieces fit. A thought-provoking, albeit humorous read. Erica Fuentes' extraordinary ability to write between the lines shows her deep knowledge of her subject: power and world politics from within. Shakedown's first edition in Spanish, "Las Chicas de Palacio", was abruptly withdrawn from the market despite holding fast among the top 10 best-selling books in Mexico, from its release. Was it because it hit a raw nerve? In México? In the Middle-East, or perhaps in Europe or in the United States itself? You be the judge.
