In this gripping retelling of Persephone and Demeter in the Mexicali borderlands, three Mexican-American women from a haunted family must find the truth about the missing girls from their small Southern California farming community-before the danger can find them first.At the edge of the Salton Sea, in the blistering borderlands, something is out hunting. . .Malamar Veracruz has never left the dust-choked town of El Valle. Here, Mal has done her best to build a good life: She\'s raised two children, worked hard, and tried to forget the painful, unexplained disappearance of her sister, Elena. When another local girl goes missing, Mal plunges into a fresh yet familiar nightmare. As a desperate Mal hunts for answers, her search becomes increasingly tangled with inscrutable visions of a horse-headed woman, a local legend who Mal feels compelled to follow. Mal\'s perspective is joined by the voices of her two daughters, all three of whom must work to uncover the truth about the missing girls in their community before it\'s too late.Combining elements of Latina and Indigenous culture, family drama, mystery, horror, and magical realism in a spellbinding mix, Salt Bones lays bare the realities of environmental catastrophe, family secrets, and the unrelenting bond between mothers and daughters.
