In this novel of the mestizo, or mixed-blood, Frank Waters completes the Southwestern canvas begun in "The Man Who Killed the Deer" and "People of the Valley." Set in a violent Mexican border town, the story centers on Barby, a tormented mestizo, Guadalupe, the mestiza "percentage-girl," and Tai-Ling, the serene yogi.
