The Mayan God of Death and a young woman are bound together and must travel around Mexico of the 1920s to help the god restore his kingdom.
Here are some of the things I liked about this book: Casiopea's ability to defy those in her life who had power over her, including her grandfather and cousin. The interconnectedness of Casiopea and Hun-Kame as they traveled, and how that changed both of them in ways that were both good and bad. The character of the Mayan God of Death and the other figures from Mayan mythology including his twin brother, the magician Uay Chivo, Loray, the Mamlab weather gods. The places the two visited including Mexico City and Baja California and Uukumil and even Xibalba. The resolution of the story was also very satisfying.
