A man facing his daughter's terminal illness and crushing medical debt takes a job as a hitman for a cartel — and the job spirals into something far more dangerous and supernatural than he anticipated. Iglesias's Bram Stoker Award-winning novel blends noir, horror and Latino working-class desperation in prose that switches between English and Spanish.
