Solitario Cisneros thought his life was over long ago. He lost his wife, his family, even his country in the late 1870s when the Rio Grande shifted course, stranding the Mexican town of Olvido on the Texas side of the border.

But as they’ll soon find out, their bonds will be undone by a force more powerful than they could have known.
