The Saint of Enchiladaville

By Michael Carrigan

Patrick Brennan, sector chief for the U. S. Border Patrol along New Mexico's border with Mexico, discovers a young, pregnant Mexican woman who has entered the United States illegally to deliver her baby and start a new life. Suffering from a severe rattlesnake bite when found, Teresa Morales certainly will die without immediate medical attention. Brennan carries Teresa out of the desert and saves her life.
As Teresa recovers from her injuries pending deportation, Chief Brennan and Teresa develop a bond that results in life-changing decisions with surprising and stunning results. This heartwarming story of compassion and love explores how humanity can win out against great odds. Michael Carrigan's The Saint of Enchiladaville includes his story Immigration Man and serves as a sequel and conclusion of the characters Pat Brennan and Teresa Morales.
