Description |
Francisco X. Stork's novels follow Hispanic teens as they come of age.
Claire Rosser, of KLIATT Reviews, writes 'Stork was
born in Mexico, grew up in the projects of El Paso, and now is an attorney
living in Massachusetts. He wanted to write about the Chicano youths he
remembers; to create a suspenseful story his own teenage children would
enjoy reading. He has accomplished that goal.
