In this newly rediscovered memoir, Bonnie Bremser, ex-wife of Beat-poet Ray Bremser, chronicles her life on the run from the law in the early Sixties. When Ray fled to Mexico in 1961 to avoid imprisonment for armed robbery, a crime he claimed he did not commit, Bonnie followed with their baby daughter, Rachel. In a foreign country with no money and little knowledge of the language, Bonnie was forced into a life of prostitution to support her family and their drug habit. Just twenty-three years old, Bonnie was young and inexperienced, but very much in love with her husband; indeed, she was ready to go to any lengths in an attempt to keep their small family alive and together, even if it meant becoming une troia.
This work is the first to present detailed, first-person accounts of the Mormon missionary experience. Armed with little more than youthful vigor and firmly held religious convictions, twins Gary and Gordon Shepherd left their home in Salt Lake City in 1964 for two years as missionaries in Mexico. Mormon Passage is one result of that experience, a combination of diaries and field notes kept by the two during their mission and sociological analyses of their experiences. The brothers' goal is to help readers understand the consequences of the missionary experience for the vitality of Mormon religious life. "Seldom has excellent research been woven so tightly with personal experience. . . . Very well written, a compelling narrative and an absorbing analysis." -- Lavina Fielding Anderson, coeditor of Sisters in Spirit: Mormon Women in Historical and Cultural Perspective

Dr. Collin Reeves rejected the easy life once out of medical school, enrolling instead in the famous London School of Tropical Diseases, transitioning straight out into the trenches of the Third World and fighting the Good Fight against the legion of diseases that bedevil the world’s poor. He was making a difference. His youthful energy and commitment, and the fact that he seemed to have no problem “going native” caught the attention of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, and given his idealistic nature and proven capabilities, it was no surprise when he said “yes” to their recruitment after the horrific events of 9/11/2001. His transfer found him in Mexico City under the guise of “on-call” doctor for sick American tourists. In reality, a rumor reached the Head of Station that something had been taken off a ship of Middle-Eastern origin and was now somewhere on the Mexican mainland. Dr. Reeves was now being assigned to keep a prisoner alive who was being tortured for information about the supposed incident, and to look after a beautiful young “tourist” staying at his hotel, leading to a series of events that left him at war with his own conscience, the CIA, and the desire to be loved.
