Vampires of El Norte by Isabel CañasRead about another entry on the list.
Nena and Néstor were inseparable as children … until one night when Nena is attacked by an enigmatic beast. Thinking his friend dead, Néstor flees, unable to face a new world without her. When events of the Mexican-American War call him home nine years later, he learns Nena survived the attack … and that the Anglos aren’t the only thing for the people of El Norte to fear.
Like Isabel Cañas’ first novel The Hacienda, Vampires of El Norte is a deeply romantic and deeply spooky historical gothic tale.
