Jason Joaquin A. (jayalmonte) reviewed on 1/22/2008

Ernesto Quinonez's novel is an exciting preview of what life in New York City's Spanish Harlem was during the 70s and what it is like today. His book is very well written, with excellent use of the vernacular, sprinkled with Spanish and spanglish through. It will take a "nuyorican" back "home" through it's pages. His characters are well-drawn, believable, and vivid, and they live in the novel through an interesting mystery plot that is sure to thrill any reader. I highly recommend this book.
