A Babalawo is asked to cleanse and rid his debt collector's home of spirits before Noche Buena, and in exchange, he will forgive his debt.  In this episode, I chat with author Raul Palma about his debut novel "A Haunting in Hialeah Gardens," and we take a deep dive into the supernatural and the issue of personal debt.  Palma offers an insightful analysis of Hugo's personality and the transformation of Miami and its influence on Palma's writing.  Plus, we also get some great book recommendations and a sneak peek into his current projects.
