      In this Latinx YA fantasy inspired by El Zorro, Lola de La Peña becomes the masked heroine Salvación to save her family and town from a man intent on destroying it for its magic. Yearning for freedom from societal expectations, Lola pretends to be delicate while secretly watching her mamá use sal negra, a healing magic. By night, she transforms into Salvación, a vigilante protecting Coloma amid rising tensions in Alta California after the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. When a woman arrives with a chilling story about her town's destruction by sal roja, a deadly magic wielded by Damien Hernández, Lola realizes the threat is imminent. Hernández, with his party of fifty, plans to reclaim Alta California for México, needing only the next full moon and a stolen ancient amulet to unleash his destructive power. Determined to protect her loved ones, Lola races against time to thwart his ambitions. However, she finds herself distracted by Alejandro, who travels with Hernández but seems to oppose his goals. As the stakes escalate and Hernández draws closer to his plans, Lola must navigate her feelings for Alejandro, whom she doesn't fully trust yet finds herself falling for. With everything on the line, she will do whatever it takes to stop Hernández.
