Title: Camp Olvido
Description: "In the California heartland in 1932, at a migrant labor camp whose very name means forgotten, a child's sudden illness leads to tensions between workers wishing to break camp and the land barons enforcing their contracts. Into this dispute Esteban Alas--contrabandista and self-styled businessman--is reluctantly drawn as a mediator, until an act of violence forces him into a more tragic role."--Page 4 of cover.
