Missing
A directionless and unreliable college freshman goes on a quest to make life into art in obsessive and creepy ways. An inmate in a confinement cell writes a letter to his ex, explaining a bizarre occurrence. Santeria, love, magic, and memory are explored from Kendall to Little Havana. A night’s hellish adventure for one suburban hoodlum comes full circle. A war story is shared at Jackson Memorial Hospital’s detox unit. A father somehow entangles his scat fetish with his child. The dissolution of a Halloween party in Wynwood ends with a crossbow. And a tale that involves two friends, a boat, the Gulf Stream, dolphins, necrophilia, and an overdose of LSD are among the thirteen stories found in Missing, a collection born and raised in Miami.

Weird and delightful, some of the stories will resonate with you long after you read them...much like a bad acid trip. Right off the bat, with the story "Master Printer," Garcia makes it very clear that you are no longer in this world, but a slightly skewed, off-center version of this world. "Not Chocolate" is like one of those bad accidents on the interstate...It's wrong to stare at, but you get some sort of odd pleasure from it...and you don't know if you feel better or worse about yourself for liking it.
This is a great first effort from a talented writer. I look forward to reading what Mr. Garcia produces in the future.
