Como hija de un ranchero en el México de 1840, Nena sabe un par de cosas sobre monstruos; su hogar ha estado mucho tiempo amenazado por tensiones con anglos del norte. Pero algo más siniestro merodea por el rancho en la noche, algo que drena la sangre de los hombres y los da por muertos. Lo mismo que atacó a Nena hace nueve años. Al creer a Nena muerta, Néstor ha intentado huir de su pena, yendo de rancho en rancho, trabajando como vaquero. Pero no hay alcohol suficiente para disipar los terrores nocturnos de dientes filosos; no hay mujer que pueda borrar de su mente a su amor de la infancia. Cuando Estados Unidos invade México en 1846, Nena y Néstor se reencuentran repentinamente de camino a la guerra: Nena es curandera, una sanadora que lucha por probarle a su padre su valía para que no la case con un extraño, y Néstor es miembro de la caballería auxiliar de rancheros y vaqueros. Pero el impacto de su reunión —y la ira de Nena hacia Néstor por abandonarla tiempo atrás— queda pronto opacado por la aparición de una pesadilla de carne y hueso. Y a menos de que Nena y Néstor resuelvan su pasado y enfrenten juntos el futuro, ninguno de los dos sobrevivirá para ver el amanecer.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONVampires and vaqueros face off on the Texas-Mexico border in this supernatural western from the author of The HaciendaAs the daughter of a rancher in 1840s Mexico, Nena knows a thing or two about monsters—her home has long been threatened by tensions with Anglo settlers from thenorth. But something more sinister lurks near the ranch at night, something that drainsmen of their blood and leaves them for dead. Something that once attacked Nena nine years ago.Believing Nena dead, Néstor has been on the run from his grief ever since, moving from ranch to ranch working as a vaquero. But no amount of drink can dispel the night terrors ofsharp teeth; no woman can erase his childhood sweetheart from his mind.When the United States invades Mexico in 1846, the two are brought abruptly together onthe road to war: Nena as a curandera, a healer striving to prove her worth to her father so that he does not marry her off to a stranger, and Néstor as a member of the auxiliary cavalry of ranchers and vaqueros. But the shock of their reunion—and Nenas rage at Néstor for seemingly abandoning her long ago—is quickly overshadowed by theappearance of a nightmare made flesh.And unless Nena and Néstor work through their past and face the future together, neitherwill survive to see the dawn.
