Of Marigolds, Music, and Mistakes

Ten years have passed since Miguel dreamt of entering the Land of the Remembered. Now, at 22 years of age, he can only barely recall his dream at all, only that it brought music back into the Rivera’s life and him to start writing songs, just as his great-great papa Hector did before him.But when La Muerte, patron goddess of the Land of the Remembered, calls upon him one night, Miguel has to consider it was more than some crazy fever dream. Xibalba, ruler of the Land of the Forgotten, is up to his schemes once more and La Muerte needs her champions to stop him before it’s too late. She needs Miguel and the living descendant of the only other man who has entered her realm and lived to tell the tale, a man whom Miguel had thought to be only a child’s fairytale before now: Manolo Sanchez.But Miguel needs to find this mysterious living relative before he can do anything to stop Xibalba first. And he has until the last sunrise of Dia de Los Muertos to do it.
