Compelling short stories about women in different situations and experiences. These are some of the short stories in this volume: Two sisters experience a communication phenomenon at a distance. A woman gets ready to confront her past and ponders what could have been. The mystery of an enigmatic woman who falls in love with a young man visiting the Mar Chiquita Lagoon in Córdoba, Argentina. A woman who pays dearly for being the other in a stormy triangle. A romance in 1960s Buenos Aires. Two friends in a small Ohio town try to overcome the shadow of betrayal in their past. After several years of writing short stories between my novels, I decided to publish some of them. Most stories have women protagonists, many of them Latino women, struggling and trying to make sense of their circumstances. Other stories have a touch of mystery, and most of them deal with feelings of love, guilt, joy, pain, and understanding. "Isabel has a fine-tuned ear, capturing dialogues naturally and vividly in her stories. This creates a strong sense of place, transporting the reader to the scene without the need for explanations, as if one were there, listening first hand. This is an unusual talent that elevates prose to a new dimension, where the sound of words is as important as their meaning."
