Una abogada y su anciana tía abuela utilizan sus dones supernaturales para encontrar a una niña perdida en esta "asombrosa novela que rompe los esquemas del género y trata de la magia que canta a nuestro alrededor" (Julia Phillips, autora de Dissapearing Earth), siguiendo la misma línea de La herencia de la orquídea divina y La hacienda.

Las brujas no existen, pero llegan cuando se las invoca.

1943, El Paso, Texas: Nena, una adolescente, pasa sus días a cargo de los bebés de sus hermanas mayores mientras anhela una vida de aventura. Las premoniciones y desmayos que ha tenido que soportar desde su infancia vienen empeorando, y a Nena le preocupa acabar como la vieja curandera que vive en su misma calle, y que atemoriza a todos. Reza pidiendo algún tipo de ayuda y, cuando una noche muy tarde se aparece sor Benedicta, Nena la seguirá para cruzar fronteras en el espacio y el tiempo. En el México de la Colonia, Nena llegará a dominar sus poderes, encontrará el amor y aprenderá que la magia siempre tiene un precio.

En el presente, Marta, la sobrina nieta de Nena, se esfuerza por mantener el equilibrio entre su trabajo como abogada en un despacho, sus hijos y el cuidado de su tía abuela de noventa y tres años. Cuando Marta accede a ayudarle a encontrar a la hija perdida que dejó en el pasado, se forja una fuerte conexión entre ambas. Los poderes sobrenaturales de Marta afloran, despertando nuevas posibilidades en ella, que amenazan la vida que ha construido hasta entonces.

A lawyer and her elderly great-aunt use their supernatural gifts to find a lost child in this "wild, wondrous novel about the magic that is singing all around us" (Julia Phillips, author of Disappearing Earth)--in the vein of The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina and La Hacienda.

If you call to the witches, they will come.

1943, El Paso, Texas: teenager Nena spends her days caring for the small children of her older sisters and longing for a life of adventure. The premonitions and fainting spells she has endured since childhood are getting worse, and Nena worries she'll end up like the scary old curandera down the street. Nena prays for help, and when the mysterious Sister Benedicta arrives late one night, Nena follows her across the borders of space and time. In colonial Mexico, Nena grows into her power, finding love and learning that magic always comes with a price.

In the present day, Nena's grandniece, Marta, balances a struggling legal aid practice with motherhood and the care of the now ninety-three-year-old Nena. When Marta agrees to help search for a daughter Nena left in the past, the two forge a fierce connection. Marta's own supernatural powers emerge, awakening her to new possibilities that threaten the life she has constructed.

"Sexy, smart, and soulful, Luis Jaramillo's The Witches of El Paso pulls us across borders and time to get to the essence of what it means for families to survive this beautiful, fractured world" (Mira Jacob, author of Good Talk).

Essential Prep for Top Scorers
Format: Paperback
As someone who was initially apprehensive about the transition from the traditional SAT to the new Digital SAT (DSAT), this test prep book has been a game changer. What sets this book apart is its targeted approach. It's designed for students already scoring 600 or higher, focusing on the challenging questions of Module 2. This precision in practice ensures that you're not just reviewing what you already know - you're pushing the boundaries of your testing ability. Each question is expertly crafted to mirror the format and difficulty of the actual DSAT questions, which has helped me gain confidence in handling the trickier problems, especially in the adaptive sections. The explanations are thorough and insightful, providing deeper understanding and techniques that are crucial for the exam. Thanks to this book, I feel significantly more prepared than I ever have before. For anyone serious about aiming for the 99th percentile - this test prep book is for you!

Perfect for Serious Students!
Format: Paperback
As it states in the product details, the DSAT Prep book is great for students who already score 600 and higher. As a teacher and tutor of the SATs (among other standardized exams), I needed more practice sets outside of the Barron's, The Princeton Review, and The College Board publications, which tend to be more mindful of beginner learners. I wasn't confident that the modules and questions from these texts were sufficiently challenging strong students. The DSAT from Edenbrook Learning removed that doubt. I also appreciate the simplicity of the layout of the text: literally 4 tests with respective answer keys, raw score conversion, and explanations. There's no fluff — perfect for my needs. Will recommend to colleagues and students alike!

The Best!!!!!
Format: Paperback
These practice tests are excellent. I feels so lucky to have found this prep book for my daughter right before the big test in May. The explanations for the main idea questions, fill-in-the-blank parts, and rewriting sentences were super useful and helped my daughter get a score over 700. Can't wait for the next book to come out!!
