Mountains, Mists, Myths, and MurderClintonito Faraday Abrego, called Nito, Son of the famous Clint Faraday, head of Criminal Investigations (a silly title on the comarca Ngobe Bugle), Rep. de Panamá, is called by Moises Castillo Smith, chief of the Quebrada Tula area, to investigate the finding of two bodies near Misty Mountain. He becomes involved with an old myth of the people. Is that, in fact, behind the murders - or is it simply being used?Moga Me Dende?"Moga me dende?" is a common greeting among the Ngobe Bugle indigenous people in Panamá.
It means "Where are you going?"They have a very different way of looking at things, including murder. They have a different way of handling a lot of things. Fishing Holes and Bullet HolesGoing fishing to relax can be a real turn-off - when there's a body floating in the middle of it. The Moga Me Dende? stories feature the great differences in the Indio culture and so-called "modern city" civilization, and the enormous differences in the way the people think.
People are fascinated by those differences, as indicated by reception of the Clint Faraday Mysteries.
