A summons from an ageing matriarch brings the scattered Montoya family back to the house where their strangeness began.
Zoraida Cordova's novel moves between Ecuador and the United States and across several generations, following descendants who grew up with gifts they could never explain and a grandmother who refused to account for them. When the inheritance turns out to be nothing anyone expected, the family has to trace the bargain sitting at the root of its history. Folklore, magic and ordinary domestic friction share the same pages, and the writing gives as much attention to grief, belonging and migration as to the enchantment itself.
What you'll find in these pages:
• Magical realism rooted in Latin American folklore and myth
• A family story spanning generations and two continents
• Themes of heritage, identity, migration and belonging
• Character-driven storytelling rather than plot twists alone
For readers of literary fantasy and book-club fiction looking for something atmospheric, available at Boipoka.
