Living in the remote town of Tierra del Sol is dangerous, especially in the months when powerful spirits -- criaturas -- roam the desert and threaten humankind.
When her older sister, Juana, is kidnapped by El Sombrerón, a powerful dark criatura, Cece Rios is determined to bring Juana back. To get into Devil’s Alley, though, she’ll have to become a bruja (witch) herself—while hiding her quest from her parents, her town, and the other brujas. Thankfully, the legendary criatura Coyote has a soft spot for humans and agrees to help her on her journey. Cece sets out to reunite her family—and maybe even change what it means to be a bruja along the way.
