Blending together horror, the supernatural, and suspense, a novel set on both sides of the Mexican-American border follows two people--one escaping from her torturers and one escaping from prison--as they try to make it through the desert alive.
Locked in a Mexican jail for a crime he did not commit, Jess Galvan makes a devil's bargain to escape only to confront the hellish challenges of having his mind and body possessed by the five-hundred-year-old ghost of an Aztec priest.
