Description
What caused the face of the most beautiful woman in all of Aguafuertes to crack? It wasn't vanity. Carmen, daughter of the alcalde of Aguafuertes, falls passionately in love with the handsome young cavalry captain who leads his troopers into the village for a brief respite from a long, arduous trail. When her father stages an ambush, killing most of the troopers to assauge his cowardly ego, he loses not only his daughter but his life. But what she loses is much worse. If you've enjoyed the works of Gabriel García Márquez and Isabel Allende, you'll enjoy these Stories from the Cantina.
