The Virgin's Guide to Mexico von Eric B. Martin
Written in a matter-of-fact poetic style, this book is about a journey into a Mexico that is a scary frontier for a young lady bent on tracing her roots.

Martin's is an authentic voice rich in detail and which succeeds in showing us a starkly real world.
This was a pretty good collection of short stories. However, I wouldn't say they were "spine-tingling." For instance, "To build a fire" from Jack London was a story in the collection.
