Bitter Grounds is a compelling and heartbreaking story of a young woman's search for justice and understanding. Maria is an undocumented immigrant who has been living in the United States for over thirteen years, ever since she was forced to flee her home in Mexico after her brother was killed by a cartel. Despite the obstacles placed in her way by the government and her own fear, Maria continues to fight for her rights, determined to provide for her young daughter and make a life for herself and her family. When Maria is falsely accused of a crime she didn't commit, she is forced to fight against the system in order to prove her innocence. Bitter Grounds is an unforgettable story of resilience and determination, and an important reminder that no one is immune from the effects of injustice.; 8vo; Signed by Author.
