THE BURNING CLASS

In the midst of the rampant crime and corruption of early 1980s Brooklyn, Analie has built a life for herself as the adoring young wife of a New York City police officer and trusted nanny to a sweet little boy. But Analie has a deadly past and a terrible secret that’s catching up to her—one that she’ll do anything to outrun, even if it means setting her world on fire and watching everyone and everything go up in flames. Analie has been burning for a long time… and you never forget your first crime.

THE BURNING CLASS is Luisa Colon’s incendiary second novel, a gripping supernatural thriller that weaves a story of trauma, fury, and love against the backdrop of a city on fire. Author Debra Castaneda calls it “riveting” and “a dark and gritty novel that tackles the claustrophobia of family life, the burden of secrets, crime and the supernatural.” (Available for purchase on Amazon)

BAD MOON RISING

In Gravesend, Brooklyn, sixteen-year-old Elodia is an outcast at school, at odds with her father, and longing for her mysteriously absent mother. Lonely and isolated, Elodia knows that something unspeakably terrible has happened to her—she just can’t remember what.

Miles away in upstate New York, a young man named Gabriel occupies his time by killing sparrows and searching for his birth parents. Gabriel wants to show them what a good son he can be, well-behaved and helpful and no trouble at all—until a savage betrayal plants an ever-growing seed of revenge within him.

Desperate for the promise of their past lives and future dreams, both Elodia and Gabriel are broken and scarred, their lives shattered. Their wounds run deep—and that kind of damage is irrevocable. Unchangeable. Irreversible. … Isn’t it?

“BAD MOON RISING is twisty and disturbing… an ambitious, moody meditation on the cycles of familial trauma.” —Paul Tremblay (Cabin at the End of the World)
