Private Investigator of the Strange and Unexplained Jerónimo Velasquez (or Vel, as everyone calls him) is in grieving after the brutal killing of his girlfriend by a wild animal. With other murders in the area creating a coincidental timeline, he becomes convinced that the coincidence means something - after all, a coincidence is no small thing, and if magic seeps into every day life by such means, then surely...surely...His mother's magic is tricky but it hasn't led him astray. Yet. Jackrabbit Brujo is a mystery thriller with grounded magical realism inspired by the poetry of Gloria Anzaldúa. Thematically, Vel is the weird space of the in-between; mixed in race and beliefs, becoming a driving force of how he conducts his investigations.
