World War I veteran and family patriarch, Carlos Montoya wanders the llano of New Mexico and Colorado, tormented by ghosts and struggling for spiritual and family unity. Just as the arms of the Six-Armed Cross at La Garita, Colorado, point toward one center, the Montoya family legacy melds the additional arms of incompatibility, intimacy, and multiple realities-the sensible and the mystical. Three generations must come to terms with what it means for family to be broken by lies and by truth. Award-winning author John Paul Jaramillo, who was raised in eastern Colorado, continues the exploration of his familial and cultural roots in this multi-generational novel, a project first introduced in his acclaimed story collection The House of Order (2012) and extended via his powerful debut novel Little Mocos (2017). Carlos Montoya probes many of the same themes as these earlier works, but with even greater depth and sensitivity.
