Six months after Paola Santiago confronted the legendary La Llorona, life is nothing like shed expected it to be. She is barely speaking to her best friends, Dante and Emma, and whats worse, her mom has a totally annoying boyfriend. Even with her chupacabra puppy, Bruto, around, Pao cant escape the feeling that shes all alone in the world.
Pao has no one to tell that shes having nightmares again, this time set in a terrifying forest. Even more troubling? At their center is her estranged father, an enigma of a man she barely remembers. And when Dantes abuela falls mysteriously ill, it seems that the dad Pao never knew just might be the key to healing the eccentric old woman.
Paos search for her father will send her far from home, where she will encounter new monsters and ghosts, a devastating betrayal, and finally, the forest of her nightmares. Will the truths her father has been hiding save the people Pao loves, or destroy them?
Once again Tehlor Kay Mejia draws on her Mexican heritage to tell a wild and wondrous story that combines creatures from folklore with modern-day challenges.
