Roxanne Hernandez
Lupita's hard-knock life has gotten the better of her time and time again. A childhood robbed of innocence set off a chain of events that she still has not managed to control, no matter how hard she tries. Every time she thinks she has a handle on things, unexpected turns make her question everything, including herself.
When Lupita witnesses the murder of a local politician whom she greatly admires, the ghosts of her past resurface as she tries to cope with the present. She quickly falls back into her old self-destructive habits and becomes a target of Mexico's corrupt political machine. As the powers that be kick into high gear to ensure the truth remains hidden, Lupita finds solace in the purity of indigenous traditions. While she learns how to live simply, like her ancestors, she comes to understand herself and rediscovers light within a dark life. And if there is hope for Lupita's redemption, perhaps there is hope for Mexico.

NoWould you be willing to try another one of Roxanne Hernandez’s performances?
YesIf you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Pierced by the Sun?
I read a reasonable amount and couldn't make it past the first chapter. The superfluous use of profanity with no real contribution to the story line made it a complete waste of time.Horrible would be an upgrade

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This book is told from the point of view of a fascinatingly spiritual yet very flawed character. It shows the underbelly of politics and religion in Mexico and it also gives a great look into the native culture. I really loved this book.What did you like best about this story?
The information about the native spiritual practices and beliefs.What about Roxanne Hernandez’s performance did you like?
Her ability to accurately pronounce not only English but also Spanish and Nahuatl words really enriched the story.Any additional comments?
I just wished it had been longer.A trip into the mind of a fascinating character
