Literary Fiction
by Brenda Lozano
The beguiling story of a young journalist whose investigation of a murder leads her to the most legendary healer in all of Mexico. Paloma is dead, but before she was murdered, before she was even Paloma, she was a traditional healer whose story interweaves with that of her investigator in a lyrical exploration of Indigenous knowledge, gender identity, and the violence that erases those who live outside accepted boundaries.
