In the Grande Scheme of Life: Luis' Story

You will smile, laugh, and maybe even cry. This book will challenge your heart and mind as you wrestle with the issues presented. There are no clear answers, yet, you as the reader may be the one to come up with the very solutions needed. This is the first in a series of contemporary fiction geared for the young adult reader which takes a look at the lives of several families dealing with immigration issues, the drug epidemic, and the grips of the drug cartel as they eventually realize how their lives all converge at the Rio Grande. Through the eyes of twelve-year-old Luis Hernandez, the novel takes the reader through the struggles of immigration issues and how the drug cartel has negatively impacted communities. As Luis continues to become more aware of the events as the background stories of others converge, Luis realizes the immigration topics are much more complicated with no perfect answers. This first writing in a novel series is a bold step forward as the reader looks at the realities of the immigration debate and takes a deeper look concerning the issues of today. This unforgettable story has the ability to speak honestly to the things that really matter as the reader looks to resolve the issues while maintaining a heart for humanity and all that is right.
