By Luis Alberto Urrea

In May 2001, a group of 26 Mexican immigrants set out on a journey to cross the Arizona desert. They were led by a coyote, or human smuggler, named Jesus Manuel Lopez. The journey quickly turned deadly. The immigrants ran out of water and food, and they began to die. By the time they were rescued, 14 of them had died.

The Devil's Highway is a novel based on the true story of this tragedy. Urrea tells the story from the perspectives of the immigrants, the coyote, and the rescuers. He paints a vivid picture of the harsh conditions the immigrants faced and the desperation that drove them to risk their lives. He also explores the complex relationship between the immigrants and the coyote, and the difficult choices that the rescuers had to make.

The Devil's Highway is a powerful and moving novel that sheds light on a little-known tragedy. It is a story of hope, despair, and the human spirit. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in immigration, the bFree Downloadlands, or the human condition.

"The Devil's Highway is a powerful and moving novel that shines a light on a dark chapter in American history. Urrea's writing is both lyrical and unflinching, and he tells the story of these immigrants with compassion and respect." -Imbolo Mbue
