Rooted

Author of Pi鎙ta, Leopoldo Go's latest horror novel Rooted is a "a blood reckoning" (Marlon James) where one woman's return to Mexico City digs away the layers of her forgotten past and the Aztec gods she awakened.

Aurora, a successful art lawyer, has returned to Mexico to celebrate a recent campaign for the repatriation of stolen artifacts. In particular a mysterious statue of an Aztec god.

There's nothing wrong with Aurora.

But Mexico City isn't as she remembered, and as she cares for her ailing mother, home isn't as she remembered either. Nothing is as she remembered. Elements of her past hint at darkness and power, and reality begins to crack and warp the streets.

There's nothing wrong with Aurora.

But some sicknesses can't be healed. As Aurora's sanity unravels, she must pry apart her family's secrets and accept the simplest of truths: The Flayed One cannot stay buried.
