Book excerpt: In the heart of Albuquerque, a city brimming with contradictions and unexpected beauty, "Albuquerque Sings the Blues" unfolds a tapestry of interwoven lives and poignant moments. James Scott LaFon masterfully captures the essence of a place where the past collides with the present, and where every soul has a story to tell. Meet Pastor Brown, a man of faith navigating the tumultuous waters of morality in a city often shadowed by sin. Follow Bianca, a dedicated bank employee trying to piece her life back together after a devastating divorce, and her son Taylor, a young man balancing school and the weight of his fragmented family. From the determined loan applicants at the Western Bank to the gritty, resilient construction workers shaping Albuquerque's skyline, each character brings their own blues to this soulful narrative. As these lives intersect, LaFon paints a vivid portrait of Albuquerque–a place where dreams are both shattered and born anew, where love is found in the unlikeliest of places, and where the blues are more than just a genre of music–they are a way of life. "Albuquerque Sings the Blues" is not just a novel; it's an immersive experience into the heart and soul of a city that sings its blues loud and clear. Perfect for readers who love deeply human stories filled with rich, complex characters, this book will resonate long after the last page is turned.
