Hurricanes. Car accidents. Gang violence. Suicide. \u003ci\u003eEstamos rodeados de fantasmas \u003c\/i\u003ewas Gabe's grandmother's refrain. We are surrounded by ghosts. But this time is different. Bimbo's mom has been shot dead.\u003ci\u003e We're gonna kill the guys who killed her \u003c\/i\u003eBimbo swears. And they all agree. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Feral with grief, Bimbo has become unrecognizable, taking no prisoners in his search for names. Soon, they learn Maria was gunned down by guys working for the drug kingpin of Puerto Rico. No one has ever gone up against him and survived. As the boys strategize, a storm gathers far from the coast. Hurricanes are known to carry evil spirits in their currents and bring them ashore, spirits which impose their own order. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Blurring the boundaries between myth, mysticism, and the grim realities of our world, House of Bone and Rain is a harrowing coming of age story; a doomed tale of devotion, the afterlife of violence, and what rolls in on the tide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mulholland Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/06\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780316427012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2024 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/27\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2024 pg. 49\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gabino Iglesias","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44273849532597,"sku":"9780316427012","price":24.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_21371dac-e8fe-46f9-a8ff-c8d2f13a5563.jpg?v=1718082857","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/house-of-bone-and-rain-9780316427012","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
