When a single night of terror shatters a small Yaqui town, the Falcón family splinters.
Mateo and Petra seek to hold their children close, but secrets and violence push them apart. Ángel, the eldest, seduced by city life and a Yori woman; Luz, brave and stubborn, determined to broker a fragile peace; and Cheve, born with a cleft that marks him as ugly-and magical.
Set against the prolonged terror of land-grabs and the cruelty of colonizers, it is the story of family, love, and the desperate struggle to bind them.
Deer Dancer marries Yaqui myth and Sonoran history, perfect for readers of historical fiction and indigenous-centered tales. Readers will lose themselves in a world of Yaqui magical realism à la Juan Rulfo and Miguel Ángel Asturia.
