Spanning New Orleans and northeastern Mexico, The Infinite centers on a young couple and their hopes for a new future together. Luz Hidalgo immigrated to New Orleans with her undocumented father after Hurricane Katrina. Jonah McBee, with hardly any family left, exists on his own. In each other, Jonah and Luz find refuge from the losses that define their lives. When they fall in love, it is intense, addictive, and real. But everything changes when Luz discovers she's pregnant. Her father sends her back to Mexico to raise the baby with her grandmother. Devastated, Jonah sets off on a road trip after her. Little does he know, Luz is fighting for her life. A shocking act of violence has derailed her return, thrusting her into what seems to be an inescapable cycle of bloodshed. A breathtaking portrait of post-Katrina New Orleans and a riveting descent into Mexico's drug war, The Infinite is an utterly unique debut novel about the borders that divide us?and the truths that unite us.
