A married woman pushed to the edge. A young man alone on his own in the backlands of 19th century South Texas. A famous inventor on the verge of both breakthrough and tragedy. A chance encounter on the Oregon Coast between a man on the run and an isolated hunter. The mysterious death of a saintly girl in 11th century Belgium and its impact on an entire town ravished by her otherworldly beauty. The tragic power hidden in every human heart. And above it all: the mysterious night air. These are some of the stories told in Joe Galván's masterfully written Sereno.
