Inspired by her own family’s roots in the Wild Horse Desert, the story follows a fearless young woman, Sarita, determined to seek justice for her brother’s murder when no one else will — not even the Texas Rangers. As Sarita sets off alone across the Rio Grande to confront his killer, she faces everything from tequila smugglers to snakes to revolutionaries. With Sarita, Natalie brings a powerful, female-led voice to a setting and era often romanticized but rarely shown from the perspective of a woman. $0.99 on Kindle.
