Chango's Fire: A Novel Kindle Edition
In New York City’s Spanish Harlem, Julio and Maritza are each searching for a path that will give their lives meaning, no matter how shadowed by controversy. Julio is an arsonist for hire, pocketing thousands of dollars from investors eager to capitalize on more expensive real estate. But when he has reason to stop setting his neighborhood ablaze and vows to change his ways, Julio’s employers threaten his life—and the lives of those close to him.
Maritza, meanwhile, has become the pastor of a progressive Pentecostal church—the perfect cover for the scam she’s running. For the right price, she’ll make anyone an American citizen. With a cast of characters as colorful as the city itself, Ernesto Quiñonez brings a vibrant community and landscape to life in this follow-up to his acclaimed novel Bodega Dreams
