Book Preview: "Backtracked"
"An insightful novel. . . . Those who remember history are destined to be changed by it--for the better!" Jack Gantos, Newberry Honor-winning author of the Joey Pigza books.
REVIEW
"De Alcantara’s obvious love for New York is infectious, especially for history buffs, and his ability to fashion gritty realism within a fantastical plot sets this thriller apart."
