What they don\u2019t know is that the house once belonged to a notorious drug trafficker, now imprisoned\u2014or that the property appears to be linked to a series of mysterious disappearances.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">The family begins to hear footsteps and scratching inside the walls, especially those adjoining Patricia\u2019s bedroom. Frightened, they report the incidents to the police.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">This is how Roberto meets Sub-Commander Alicia Romero, who informs him that more than twenty children have disappeared around his property over the past two years. However, Alicia omits three crucial facts: first, that she and the officers under her command have been searching the area around La Huerta for months\u2014not for the missing children, but for the millions of pesos rumored to have been buried there by the drug trafficker who once owned the house; second, that members of this trafficker\u2019s cartel are still operating nearby; and third, that a reporter claims the disappearances are the work of a creature that moves through the trees, feeding on young organs to survive.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">In an attempt to uncover the truth, Roberto begins questioning the townspeople and becomes entangled in a web of mysteries that distract him from his family\u2014until the inevitable happens: Patricia disappears after going swimming in the lake. A parade of suspects emerges, and Roberto no longer knows whom to trust, as it seems every inhabitant of the town is hiding terrible secrets. He soon realizes they should never have moved to La Huerta.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<i><span lang=\"EN-US\">Entrails of the Earth<\/span><\/i><span lang=\"EN-US\">, a spin-off of <i>La Huerta<\/i>, takes us back to the origin of the millions of pesos buried around the house. The story follows Lorena Sol\u00eds, a former investigative agent who, posing as a journalist, investigates the kidnapping of a high school student and the murder of another agent. This leads her into a network of kidnappings, femicides, and organ trafficking tied to drug cartels and corrupt authorities. After surviving a brutal attack, she forms an alliance with the Dago Cartel to seek revenge. The novel exposes structural violence and institutional decay in rural Mexico.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">RELEVANT INFORMATION:<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\"> Set in rural Mexico, <i>La Huerta<\/i> draws from Stephen King and Juan Rulfo to deliver a gripping thriller that gradually transforms into pure horror. <\/span><i>La Huerta<\/i> won the <b>\u201cAlas de cuervo\u201d International Horror Novel Award (2022)<\/b>. <span lang=\"EN-US\">Meanwhile, <i>Entrails of the Earth<\/i>, which also sustains the tension of a thriller with horror elements, is a spin-off of <i>La Huerta<\/i> and part of a future trilogy set in Celaya.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">Its author, J. J. Mas\u00f3n, enters the Mexican literary scene with a powerful, bold, and distinctive voice. He has been selected twice for the Jorge Ibarg\u00fcengoitia State Fund for the Arts of Guanajuato.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">What critics say:<\/span><\/b>\r\n\r\n<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u201c<i>La Huerta<\/i> is an immersive thriller with elements of noir fiction. Its structure allows no wasted moments, and above all, it portrays the social reality of the Baj\u00edo and southeastern Guanajuato. Set across the municipalities of Maravat\u00edo (Michoac\u00e1n), Tarandacuao, and Ac\u00e1mbaro (Guanajuato), the story could be adapted to any part of Latin America\u2014like a Macondo or a Cu\u00e9vano, but more real and raw. In <i>La Huerta<\/i>, the fear of human evil and corruption, experienced daily like a nightmare, surpasses even the terror of the supernatural.\u201d \u2014 V\u00edctor Hugo P\u00e9rez Nieto, <i>El Sol del Baj\u00edo<\/i>.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\r\n\r\n<b><span lang=\"EN-US\">AUDIOVISUAL POTENTIAL:<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\"> TV Series, Miniseries, Film,
