Valle de Sombras Audiobook Summary

Una perspectiva visionaria de realismo magico, misterio y horror al estilo del nuevo Oeste, Valle de Sombras arroja luz sobre el oscuro pasado de injusticia, aislamiento y dolor a lo largo de la frontera entre Mexico y los Estados Unidos.

Solitario Cisneros creia que su vida hacia tiempo que habia terminado. Perdio a su esposa, su familia, e inclusive a su pais hacia finales de la decada de 1870 cuando el Rio Grande cambio su curso dejando al pueblo mexicano de Olvido del lado tejano de la frontera. Habia hecho las paces, si bien a reganadientes, con el hecho de tener que abandonar su pistola y su insignia, y retirarse a su rancho a convivir con caballos y fantasmas. Pero cuando una ristra de asesinatos y secuestros hace estragos en el pueblo, llevando a su mezcla volatil de pobladores anglosajones, apaches y mexicanos al borde de la auto-destruccion, se ve forzado a enfrentar de nuevo la vida, y la muy probable posibilidad de la muerte.

A medida que Solitario lucha por superar no solamente las fuerzas malignas que amenazan al pueblo, sino ademas sus demonios internos, se encuentra con una improbable fuente de inspiracion y apoyo en Onawa, una talentosa y encantadora vidente apache-mexicana que defiende su causa y lo reta a abrir su corazon y cuestionar su destino.

A medida que seguimos a Solitario y Onawa hacia el desierto, junto a ellos enfrentamos cuestionamientos tan relevantes en la actualidad como lo eran entonces: Seremos capaces de rehacer nuestra historia y dar forma a nuestro propio futuro? Que significa pertenecer a un lugar, o que un lugar pertenezca a un pueblo? Y, sin importar cuan derrotados o desolados pudiesemos sentirnos, ?estamos realmente solos alguna vez?

A traves de un examen de conciencia expresado en una prosa luminosa, Rudy Ruiz transporta a los lectores hasta una epoca lejana y un sitio remoto donde las fuerzas inmortales del bien y del mal danzan entre las sombras de la magia y las montanas.
