A room locked for fifty years.
A valuable peacock ring.
A mysterious brother-sister duo.
Paloma Marquez is traveling to Mexico City, birthplace of her deceased father, for the very first time. She's hoping that spending time in Mexico will help her unlock memories of the too-brief time they spent together.
While in Mexico, Paloma meets Lizzie and Gael, who present her with an irresistible challenge: The siblings want her to help them find a valuable ring that once belonged to beloved Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. Finding the ring means a big reward -- and the thanks of all Mexico. What better way to honor her father than returning a priceless piece of jewelry that once belonged to his favorite artist!
But the brother and sister have a secret. Do they really want to return the ring, or are they after something else entirely?

Angela's second middle grade novel, Allie, First At Last, was published by Scholastic Press in 2016 and received a starred-review from Kirkus calling it a"sweet middle-grade read" that "beautifully depicts the loving intergenerational bond between Bisabuelo and his young great-grandkids." Publisher's Weekly called Allie, First At Last an "earnest story...laced with Mexican-American language and filled with gentle humor, big lessons, and even bigger heart."
Angela's next middle-grade novel, Me, Frida and the Secret of the Peacock Ring, tells the story of eleven-year-old Paloma Marquez, who accompanies her mom on a trip to Mexico, Paloma's deceased father's birth country. On her first night in Mexico, Paloma is quickly entangled in a mystery involving an artifact once owned by the artist Frida Kahlo. The book is available for pre-order and will be released by Scholastic in March 2018.
