Traveling alone except for a group of strangers and a “coyote” hired to lead them to safety, Javier’s trip is supposed to last two short weeks.  He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months with a group of strangers who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family. Pick up a copy at the Black Rock Branch Library circulation desk!  This title is also available as an audiobook and an e-book via Overdrive and the Libby app. To register, or if you have questions: Call us at 203-576-7025, or email Margaret at mgirgis@bridgeportpubliclibrary.org.
