ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Reading this novel is a hypnotic experience. Restrepo writes about immigrants, but in a strange, new and paradoxical way." -World Literature Today

The American Dream has become a nightmare, and three undocumented immigrants from Latin America find themselves trapped in it: Bolivia and her two daughters, Mar a Paz, and Violeta. Mar a Paz thinks her problems are solved when she marries a white, US-born policeman. Until he is murdered, and she is arrested. But her cell isn't the real hell; that, she discovers, is waiting for her outside prison, where a second death will define her fate.

Hot Sur isn't as concerned with how to enter the United States illegally, but rather how to get out in time. This is a book that will keep you on the age of your seat, from the first page to the last.
