Description

The Book of Lost Saints is an evocative multigenerational Cuban-American
family story of revolution, loss, and family bonds from New York Times-
bestselling author Daniel José Older. Marisol vanished during the Cuban
Revolution, disappearing with hardly a trace. Now, shaped by atrocities
long-forgotten, her tenacious spirit visits her nephew, Ramón, in modern-
day New Jersey. Her hope: that her presence will prompt him to unearth
their painful family history. Ramón launches a haphazard investigation into
the story of his ancestor, unaware of the forces driving him on his search.
Along the way, he falls in love, faces a run-in with a murderous gangster,
and uncovers the lives of the lost saints who helped Marisol during her
imprisonment. Uplifting and evocative, The Book of Lost Saints is a
haunting meditation on family, forgiveness, and the violent struggle to be
free. An Imprint Book
