FROM THE PUBLISHER - What happens when two bored, wealthy nine-year-olds take up spying and steal the town hooker s life savings? This darkly written novel, with the feel of a Mexican TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, is set in 1947 in a small town south of the Texas border. There, two young cousins tear away the shoddy veneer of their town s respectable surface and are almost dragged under by the passions and desperation of its inhabitants. Andrea is the overly curious narrator, a rebellious child of an artistic American mother and an adoring, volatile, Mexican father. She and her cousin Victor, a devout, nervous child, act out their children s drama without realizing the repercussions it will have, not only on them but on the whole town. They begin to learn fear after taking a forbidden trip to the other side of the river a site of makeshift camps, utmost poverty, and brewing anger But their disobedience and thieving is the least of their sins, for in the wake of their actions follows violence, murder, public humiliation, and suicide. In this fast-paced, elegantly written first novel, Fontes has melded the traditions of the finest Latin writers with the unnerving style of the American southern writers.
