Description

In John Manuel Arias’s lush and lyrical debut, the Cepeda-Mora women wrestle with the aftermath of colonialism, a deadly secret, and an all-consuming fire.

On the night of April 12, 1968, a lethal fire erupts at the American Fruit Company's banana plantation and the lives of the Cepeda-Mora women change forever.

Now, twenty-seven years later, Teresa is running out of luck. Her husband is missing, her youngest daughter is dead, and her only other living progeny wants nothing to do with her. Haunted by the bitter ghost of her mother, Amarga, and the mystery behind that raging inferno on her impending 60th birthday, Teresa is desperate to make amends. Lyra, her daughter, has no desire to speak to her, yet she is desperate to understand what happened to their family on that fateful night. What unfolds between these two women in this part-thriller, part-family drama, is a propelling exploration about what reconciliation means when harmful secrets of the past finally arise.

Brimming with ancestral spirits, omens, and the anthropomorphic forces of nature, John Manuel Arias weaves a brilliant tapestry of love, loss, secrets, and redemption. Set in Costa Rica from 1968 through the mid-1990s, Where There Was Fire paints a vivid portrait about how the ramifications of history and international politics are intertwined with one family’s fate.
