We all have memories we'd rather forget, but what would we become without them?
Longing for her missing mother and misunderstood by her transphobic father, Francisca Fuentes fights to live as her truest self. Then a sudden move to a dusty California ghost town thrusts her into chaos.
A cursed orange tree calls her name. A malevolent spirit demands recognition. Mirror images of grief, separated by a century, stain every inch of Francisca's new home. In this house on the border between life and death, she struggles to maintain her will to survive.
Struggles, but fails.
Francisca soon finds herself trapped in la tierra de los olvidados: the land of the forgotten, where lost souls turn to dust. To escape, she must confront repressed memories, making peace with parts of herself she tried to leave behind. However, she is not alone...
Journey through the haunted house of memory and a fresh take on the Dia de los Muertos mythos with this life-affirming novel by a suicide survivor, where horror is always balanced by hope.
