Title: Midnight sandwiches at the Mariposa Express
First published: 1997
Description: Meet Trish Izquierdo, a young upwardly mobile Latina living in the not-too-lively and perhaps not-too-colorful town of West Echevarria.

Trish knows the town's history well and, because she devours travelogues, she knows what the town lacks. As she gathers with everyone to plan the annual celebration of the town's founding at the Mariposa Express, where the townsfolk stop not only to eat its rich food but to catch up on the gossip, Trish decides to help make something of West Echevarria. She will fill it with interesting people, give the town culture, even if it means she has to invent, steal and recreate the town's history!
