Reviews
"Jaramillo's atmospheric prose conjures the dusty El Paso of the past, and depictions of La Vista vibrate with 'colorful knots of waves,' glowing indigo, maroon, and bright pink, yielding 'a wild spell, like yeast in the air.' This riveting page-turner affirms the adage, 'Family stories teach us how to live. Family secrets teach us to kill parts of ourselves.' "Gripping and cinematic, the novel's worlds of El Paso past and present will bewitch and enrapture."-- Kirkus (starred review), "Sexy, smart and soulful, Luis Jaramillo's The Witches of El Paso pulls us across borders and time to get to the essence of what it means for families to survive this beautiful, fractured world."-- Mira Jacob, national bestselling author of Good Talk, "Gorgeous and thrilling, The Witches of El Paso casts a revelatory spell. I didn't want it to end." --R. O. Kwon, Bestselling author of Exhibit and The Incendiaries, "Spanning borders and centuries, The Witches of El Paso is a wild, wondrous novel about the magic that is singing all around us. With this story, Luis Jaramillo shows us how to catch the tune." --Julia Phillips, author of Disappearing Earth , an international bestseller and National Book Award Finalist, "Luis Jaramillo weaves a captivating tale of family, tradition, and the enduring power of love. His vivid prose and intriguing plot make his novel hard to put down!" --Reyna Grande, author of A Ballad of Love and Glory

Synopsis
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue meets The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina in this upmarket debut following a woman and her niece's attempts to use magic to travel hundreds of years back in time to avert a major catastrophe--against the backdrop of the shifting winds of El Paso., "Luis Jaramillo weaves a captivating tale of family, tradition, and the enduring power of love." --Reyna Grande, author of A Ballad of Love and Glory A lawyer and her elderly great-aunt use their supernatural gifts to find a lost child in this "wild, wondrous novel about the magic that is singing all around us" (Julia Phillips, author of Disappearing Earth )--in the vein of The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina and La Hacienda . If you call to the witches, they will come. 1943, El Paso, Texas: teenager Nena spends her days caring for the small children of her older sisters and longing for a life of adventure. The premonitions and fainting spells she has endured since childhood are getting worse, and Nena worries she'll end up like the scary old curandera down the street. Nena prays for help, and when the mysterious Sister Benedicta arrives late one night, Nena follows her across the borders of space and time. In colonial Mexico, Nena grows into her power, finding love and learning that magic always comes with a price. In the present day, Nena's grandniece, Marta, balances a struggling legal aid practice with motherhood and the care of the now ninety-three-year-old Nena. When Marta agrees to help search for a daughter Nena left in the past, the two forge a fierce connection. Marta's own supernatural powers emerge, awakening her to new possibilities that threaten the life she has constructed. "Sexy, smart, and soulful, Luis Jaramillo's The Witches of El Paso pulls us across borders and time to get to the essence of what it means for families to survive this beautiful, fractured world" (Mira Jacob, author of Good Talk ).
