Chasing the Jaguar Book

Think you have issues? Try these on for size:

• Your parents are separated, and Dad's already taking vacations with his new girlfriend.
• You and Mom share a small apartment in a gang-ridden neighborhood.
• You go to school with a bunch of spoiled rich kids.
• You have recurring nightmares about a creepy jaguar.
• You're hearing strange voices and worry you may be going crazy.
• Your big quinceañera "surprise" is finding out you're a curandera, or witch.
• ... and as if that's not bad enough, your psychic powers land you smack in the middle of a kidnapping case involving an ancient Mayan statue . . . and it's up to you to solve the mystery.
