Sobre IBD

La Roja is a suspenseful, coming-of-age narrative set in McAllen, South Texas, along the Mexican border. This novel explores the complexity of this distinctive landscape-both its culture, religion, and illicit drug activity-through the unexpected romance of two high school students, Paco and Nancy. Through Huerta’s original prose, the author tells the whimsical story of the couple’s first meeting, and later the challenging collision of their beliefs. What begins as a love story transforms into a tragedy amid the tensions of the border and all that it represents.
