In this breathless thriller, the unforgettable Billy Yamamoto and his inherited team of local cops confront child abuse, professional negligence, and racial intolerance as they investigate connections between a dead boy and numerous "solid" citizens. Occult activities, drugs, and secret teenage pacts intersect with the world of loan sharks and smugglers as a small-town murder crosses the border and threatens to become an international incident—and then another body is found.
A CIA prodigy's cover is blown when he accidentally becomes an internet sensation in #Prettyboy Must Die, Kimberly Reid's fun, fast thriller inspired by the #Alexfromtarget story and perfect for fans of Alex Rider. When Peter Smith’s classmate snaps a picture of him during a late night run at the track, Peter thinks he might be in trouble. When she posts that photo—along with the caption, “See the Pretty Boy Run,”—Peter knows he’s in trouble. But when hostiles drop through the ceiling of his 6th period Chem Class, Peter’s pretty sure his trouble just became a national emergency. Because he’s not really Peter Smith. He’s Jake Morrow, former foster-kid turned CIA operative. After a massive screw-up on his first mission, he's on a pity assignment, a dozen hit lists and now, social media, apparently. As #Prettyboy, of all freaking things. His cover’s blown, his school’s under siege, and if he screws up now, #Prettyboy will become #Deadboy faster than you can say, 'fifteen minutes of fame.' Trapped in a high school with rabid killers and rabid fans, he’ll need all his training and then some to save his job, his school and, oh yeah, his life.

INTERNATIONAL LATINO BOOK AWARD WINNER - The Raul Yzaguirre Best Political/Current Affairs Book This deeply personal perspective from a human rights lawyer—whose work on the front lines of the fight against family separations in South Texas intertwines with his own story of immigrating to the United States at thirteen—reframes the United States' history as a nation of immigrants but also a nation against immigrants. In the summer of 2018, Efrén C. Olivares found himself representing hundreds of immigrant families when Zero Tolerance separated thousands of children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border. Twenty-five years earlier, he had been separated from his own father for several years when he migrated to the U.S. to work. Their family was eventually reunited in Texas, where Efrén and his brother went to high school and learned a new language and culture. By sharing these gripping family separation stories alongside his own, Olivares gives voice to immigrants who have been punished and silenced for seeking safety and opportunity. Through him we meet Mario and his daughter Oralia, Viviana and her son Sandro, Patricia and her son Alessandro, and many others. We see how the principles that ostensibly bind the U.S. together fall apart at its borders. My Boy Will Die of Sorrow reflects on the immigrant experience then and now, on what separations do to families, and how the act of separation itself adds another layer to the immigrant identity. Our concern for fellow human beings who live at the margins of our society—at the border, literally and figuratively—is shaped by how we view ourselves in relation both to our fellow citizens and to immigrants. He discusses not only law and immigration policy in accessible terms, but also makes the case for how this hostility is nothing new: children were put in cages when coming through Ellis Island, and Japanese Americans were forcibly separated from their families and interned during WWII. By examining his personal story and the stories of the families he represents side by side, Olivares meaningfully engages readers with their assumptions about what nationhood means in America and challenges us to question our own empathy and compassion.

After being chased deep into a cave by the Rewera, humans possessed by demons seeking his blood, twelve-year-old Jason and his companions find themselves thrust into a strange yet familiar world. It is a world that sort of resembles late-nineteenth-century Earth; there is no electricity and no cars, but massive airships and a royal palace fill the horizon. They have arrived in River Junction, the capital of the Kingdom of Pegasus, one of the fabled Five Kingdoms. Their arrival here was not an accident, as Jason and his uncle, Richard, quickly discover that they are members of the Pegasi royal family. For a moment, it seems that they are safe, united with those who fight the darkness with their mythic blood. However, life in the Kingdom of Pegasus is not as ideal as it would seem. Punishment is swift and harsh, even for those not proven guilty of their crimes; this spells bad news for Jason, a sometimes rebellious young boy whose energy lands him in trouble. In addition to being condemned and plunged into a nightmarish world of virtual slavery, Jason is still relentlessly pursued by the Rewera—including the vicious demon Assad, who will go to any lengths to kill Jason and prevent his destiny from unfolding. Following Jason to the Five Kingdoms, Assad receives the help of even more powerful Rewera. As part of the plot to destroy Jason, back on earth Jason’s friend Kyle is abducted to be used as a pawn to weaken the Pegasi boy’s power. An imbalance between good and evil is growing in both worlds; will Jason be perceptive enough to discover his destiny, and will he be courageous enough pursue it?
