Morris Collins - Horse Latitudes

Boston native Morris Collins joins us with his debut novel, a lushly-written modern gothic set in Central America. Ethan, guilt-laden after his wife's descent into madness, throws himself into debauchery and senselessness. His life changes after he is saved by a woman who wants one thing: for Ethan to save her sister, Mirabelle.  Moral uncertainty abounds as he finds himself in the middle of a guerrilla war, forcing him to choose between what is right and what is easy.
