Before Dodger Stadium, Dark Forces Terrorized Chavez Ravine

Los Angeles, 1952.

When her father is attacked under mysterious circumstances, 22-year-old Trini Duran must return home to Chavez Ravine, a neighborhood mostly abandoned after the government sent letters to residents demanding that they leave.

Only 200 stubborn holdouts remain.

While the Mexican American community fights to save their homes, they face a new threat that is even harder to combat than the politicians who want them gone.

Trini discovers the city and the supernatural have joined forces against her old neighborhood - monstrous creatures emerge at night, terrorizing the holdouts.

Trini, a handsome community organizer, a healer with dubious skills and a ragtag group of fighters, take up arms against the elusive enemy.

But to stop the demon invasion, Trini must decide how far she’s willing to go to save the place she once left behind."

I really enjoy reading about monsters from different cultures, and Debra's books about Mexican American folklore are both fascinating and enjoyable. She has a really easy style to read, and the stories are engaging right up until the end. Another excellent tale!
