The Last Altar
A year later, the portraits return. This time, some families want them back. In November 1911, Remedios has reduced the altar and closed the great ledger. The house is trying to become a place for cooking, arguing, and children moving through rooms without asking the dead for forgiveness. Yet the stories of San Isidro keep traveling.
