Meet Lou, a sharp-witted radio show host with a cult following of people who love America and all it stands for--except immigrants. Lou is in love with the act of debate. But he doesnt love changing his mind. And so, he might need more than intellectual convincing. Meet Ernesto, Milagros, and a mysterious man from the desert. They have plans to change the world. One by one. What would happen if we put all of these characters in the same place? Find out in at Detained inn the Desert, by Emmy-award winning Josefina Lopez.
