About this listen

 Since Joel Camacho was a child, he knew he didn’t want to stay in Cuba. Becoming a medical doctor turns into his ticket out. But it also propels him into an elaborate labyrinth of modern-day slavery, gangs, corruption, and international human trafficking from which he must escape. For him, there is only one haven. Trying to reach it becomes the most difficult challenge of his life.

***
Despite the horrors, Crossing North is ultimately a tale of love and family. Its characters are strikingly familiar. They are parents and children like our own, clinging to each other while their world falls apart. Their lives, struggles, and deaths are a lesson and a caution for the modern world.

Allen A. Witt PhD, Lead Author of America’s Community College: The First Century

About the author:
Betty Viamontes was born in Havana, Cuba. At age fifteen, Betty and her family crossed the Florida Straits in an overcrowded shrimp boat on a stormy night when many families perished. This trip would reunite the family with Betty’s father in the United States after almost twelve years of separation. Upon the death of her mother and Betty’s completion of graduate studies at the University of South Florida, to honor her mother, Betty has dedicated her life to capturing the stories of people without a voice. Her stories have traveled the world, from the award-winning novels Waiting on Zapote Street and Brothers: A Pedro Pan Story to the No. 1 new releases The Girl from White Creek and A Girl Named Polina. Latino American United States World Literature
