The news is full of it: escalating tensions from illegal immigration;
headless bodies hanging off bridges and bounties placed on lawmen on
both sides of the border. New Austin, Ohio, is a town grappling with
waves of undocumented workers who exert tremendous pressure on schools,
police and city services. In the midst of the turmoil, three very
different kinds of cops scramble to maintain control and impose order.
But the rape-murder of a Mexican-American woman triggers a brutal chain of events that threatens to leave no survivors. El Gavilan
is a novel of shifting alliances and whiplash switchbacks. Families are
divided and careers and lives threatened. Friendships and ideals are
tested and budding love affairs challenged. With its topical themes,
shades-of-gray characters and dark canvas, El Gavilan is a novel for our charged times.
