Johnnie Bernhard Book Club Talk at Bandera Public Library

Meet Johnnie Bernhard at Bandera Public Library for a book talk about her newest novel, The Witch of Sonora.

Evil rides the borderlands—and it knows your name.

Haunted by a witch only he can see, a traumatized Comanche-Mexican border agent joins an elderly rancher who shelters trafficked girls to stop ritual murders tied to Palo Mayombe, facing cartel brutality, generational trauma, and spiritual warfare in the violent, unforgiving borderlands of West Texas.
