Dr. Brinkley's tower book cover

The only industry keeping the small Mexican town of Corazón de la Fuente going is a brothel — until the arrival of an American named Dr. Romulus Brinkley. Brinkley’s decision to build a radio tower promoting his much-touted fertility operation boosts the town’s pitiful economy and the morale of its despondent citizens to new-found and boisterous heights. But the benevolent Dr. Brinkley is not all he seems, and the townsfolk soon discover that there may be a high price to pay for their unexpected prosperity.

Dr. Brinkley's Tower, Robert Hough, $25.
