Mientras las gemelas Velia y Delia, de dieciséis años, planean el lanzamiento de su gira Gemelas-Magicas con la banda tejana de su padre, un repentino ataque sobrenatural contra su padre descarrila a la familia. Papá delira con un susto, un susto tan terrible que permite que un misterioso sobrenatural comience a succionarle lentamente la vida. Mientras las gemelas persiguen al atacante de su padre, se les abre un mundo más amplio de monstruos fronterizos. Pronto las chicas deberán elegir: ¿deberían seguir un mandato divino para convertirse en cazadoras de monstruos para la diosa de la muerte? Cada gemela tiene que tomar su propia decisión, con su propio guía del panteón azteca: Quetzalcóatl guiando a Velia y Xólotl aconsejando a Delia. ¿Podrán las hermanas obedecer la voluntad de los dioses mientras salvan la vida de su padre? Cualquier cosa puede suceder dentro del reino mágico de las tierras fronterizas.

As sixteen-year-old twins Delia and Velia plan the launch of their Magic-Twin Tour with their father's Tejano band, a sudden supernatural attack on their father derails the family. Papá is delirious with a susto, a fright so awful that it allows a mysterious supernatural to begin slowly sucking the life out of him. As the twins hunt down their father's attacker, a wider world of borderland monsters opens up to them. Soon the girls must choose: should they follow a divine mandate to become monster hunters for the goddess of death? Each twin has her own decision to make, with her own guide from the Aztec pantheon-- Quetzalcoatl guiding Velia, and Xolotl advising Delia. Can the sisters obey the will of the gods while saving their father's life? Anything can happen within the magical realm of the borderlands.
