Publisher's Synopsis
In the business of helping people make better decisions, their comfortable life explodes at home and in a jungle in Southern Mexico.
It's like she doesn't know her name. Mamá to her children, Hija to her mother, Querida to her husband. Trying to overcome her fears and find herself...
As the mother of two children and wife of an adventuresome and seemingly fearless husband she knows her world but struggles with her part in it. She believes in the family mission. Those close to her see what she cannot. She is brave beyond her fears, wise beyond her insecurities, and decisive beyond her doubts. How can she save her daughter who alone is facing odds in which a special forces squad would be tempted to call in back up support?
Confronting her personal demons and the weight of her family's 600-year-old secret business, she must decide whether to share the family secrets with her children. "How can they be ready for this when I can hardly carry my part as a mature adult? Can't they just enjoy being children for a little while longer, maybe a lot longer?"
In the end, family, purpose, identity, and chocolate bring calm to the turmoil that she has managed to keep buried all her life.
