Selena Sol-Valencia is trapped in an institutionalized adventure where breaking free from the psych ward before her full moon transformation is a high stakes journey of self discovery, self control, and the ‘pro-social’ behaviors she must master as she adapts to her new neurodivergent diagnoses and medications. But the haunting figure of Cualli, La Llorona, is making it more difficult than Selena ever imagined.
Selena must dive deep into her family history and Mexican-Indigenous lore to figure out how and why the haunting spirit is so drawn to her. Friends and family are near and far, and help as they can. But Selena’s on her own against the ghosts of her family’s present and past. She must win her release before the full moon or face a lifetime of werewolf incarceration.
