Moonrise

Luz Clarita doesn't want to grow up to become like her parents. Breaking their backs in the hot sun of Santo Sol to be breadwinners. Before the rising of the Moon, Luz Clarita turns fifteen and she's conflicted to say the least of what her life will become. Who she will become. It's up to Luz to find who she is and what she stands for, to let go of old fears and be ready for what she can make of her life in the most dullest, hottest and smelliest place on Earth. Between old legends of Land and Sea, the powers of a Moonrise and the street gangs that have more to them than violence. This story is no longer a war within Luz's heart but a war of her people. A war to be remembered.
