And when she turns those sultry eyes on him -- the ones so full of longing, so free of judgment? Well, he's always considered himself a strong man, but for her, he's weak. To give in to their connection would be a betrayal. Griffin's life is beyond complicated, and Nadia has the world at her fingertips.

Season of the Swamp
by Yuri Herrera
New Orleans, 1853. A young exile named Benito Juarez disembarks at a fetid port city at the edge of a swamp. Years later, he will become the first indigenous head of state in the postcolonial Americas, but now he is as anonymous and invisible as any other migrant to the roiling and alluring city of New Orleans. Accompanied by a small group of fellow exiles who plot their return and hoped-for victory over the Mexican dictatorship, Juarez immerses himself in the city, which absorbs him like a sponge. He and his compatriots work odd jobs, suffer through the heat of a southern summer, fall victim to the cons and confusions of a strange young nation, succumb to the hallucinations of yellow fever, and fall in love with the music and food all around them. But unavoidable, too, is the grotesque traffic in human beings they witness as they try to shape their future. Though the historical archive is silent about the eighteen months Juarez spent in New Orleans, Yuri Herrera imagines how Juarez's time there prepared him for what was to come. With the extraordinary linguistic play and love of popular forms that have characterized all of Herrera's fiction, Season of the Swamp is a magnificent work of speculative history, a love letter to the city of New Orleans and its polyglot culture, and a cautionary statement that informs our understanding of the world we live in.

by Ryan C. Coleman
In 1870s New Mexico, the territory is at a crossroads. The indigenous population is being driven out - and driven down - by the white settlers migrating west after the Civil War. The center of power isn't the governor but rather the Santa Fe Ring, a group of wealthy politicians, businessmen, and landowners who exercise power through organized crime, theft, graft, and murder. Their main source of income is a mercantile store in Lincoln known as the House. After escaping jail, William Bonney - a.k.a. Billy the Kid - is a seventeen-year-old orphan who's been on the run for the better part of two years. All he wants is to belong - to find a place he can call home and people he can call family. He'd have been better off alone. Billy falls in with a gang of ruthless rustlers and murderers who work as muscle for the House. But when Billy crosses one of the members, the gang sets out to kill him. Billy narrowly escapes, finding refuge under the tutelage of John Tunstall, an English immigrant new to the territory who has his sights set on opening a business in Lincoln - and he's intent on competing directly with the House. But when Tunstall is murdered, any positive effect the mentor had on Billy is eradicated, leaving the Kid with only one thing on his mind... Revenge. From orphan to outlaw to killer, this is the untold story behind the legend of Billy the Kid.
