About the book
Ever Geimausaddle—part Mexican, part Native American—is determined to hold onto his community despite obstacles everywhere he turns. Ever’s father is injured at the hands of corrupt police on the border when he goes to visit family in Mexico, while his mother struggles both to keep her job and care for her husband. And young Ever is lost and angry at all that he doesn’t understand. Ever’s relatives all have ideas about who he is and who he should be. Through it all, every relative wants the same: to remind Ever of the rich and supportive communities that surround him, there to hold him tight, and for Ever to learn to take the strength given to him to save not only himself but also the next generation.
