Publisher's Synopsis
How do you grapple with something you can't see? How do you destroy that which haunts your dreams?
Growing up in the Chicano culture of the 90s, Raina Medina flees sinister secrets buried in her one-horse Sonoran Desert town the moment she turns 18. Signing Uncle Sam's dotted line seems like the perfect escape, until 10 years later when she finds herself unceremoniously retired from the military. All she has to show for her service is a shiny new bipolar diagnosis and a government-appointed therapist.
When a family death reluctantly brings Raina back to her hometown, retirement plaque in hand, she ends up face-to-face with the three best friends she left behind. But Raina's homecoming is bittersweet, and she finds that it's not just her friends she has to answer to, it's the secret they all helped her hide.
As hauntings and cryptic nightmares terrorize Raina and her friends, they find that evil isn't as easy to kill as they thought. Untangling generational trauma and which sins are theirs or their families, Raina and her friends have to find a way to send their devil back where it belongs.
The trick is making sure none of them go with it.
