Paola Santiago and the River of Tears
Tehlor Kay Mejia
Space-obsessed
12-year-old Paola Santiago and her two best friends, Emma and Dante,
know the rule: Stay away from the river. It's all they've heard since a
schoolmate of theirs drowned a year ago. Pao is embarrassed to admit
that she has been told to stay away for even longer than that, because
her mother is constantly warning her about La Llorona, the wailing ghost
woman who wanders the banks of the Gila at night, looking for young
people to drag into its murky depths.
Hating her mother's
humiliating superstitions and knowing that she and her friends would
never venture into the water, Pao organizes a meet-up to test out her
new telescope near the Gila, since it's the best stargazing spot. But
when Emma never arrives and Pao sees a shadowy figure in the reeds, it
seems like maybe her mom was right. . . .
Pao has always relied
on hard science to make sense of the world, but to find her friend she
will have to enter the world of her nightmares, which includes unnatural
mist, mind-bending monsters, and relentless spirits controlled by a
terrifying force that defies both logic and legend.
