Miami, FL — October 23, 2026
OreatePress announces the publication of "Lost Innocences: The Pact," the debut novel by Tony Haber-Matos, released simultaneously in seven languages: English, Spanish, Italian, French, German, Japanese, and Portuguese.
The novel unfolds in contemporary Havana, where three students at the Colegio San Jerónimo pay a spiritual practitioner for stolen examination answers and uncover the Northstar Continuity Review, a foundation network that classifies children, Reliable, Uncertain, Dangerous, and converts help into obedience. When the housekeeper Yadira is accused and fired, and the machine's records begin to surface, journalist Lucía Valdés follows the paper trail to the network's founding question: "If only one student can receive help, how would you decide who deserves it?"
A story about faith, fear, and the price of silence, "Lost Innocences: The Pact" closes with a question the machine never answered and that no authority may settle alone: who gets to decide?
Tony Haber-Matos, a Miami entrepreneur and FIU alumnus whose wine brands were born in a poetry class, publishes under his independent imprint OreatePress. English ISBN 979-8-1703311-3-0; Spanish ISBN 979-8-1706881-7-3.
The novel is available on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HHXVHXHS) and at Walmart and Barnes & Noble. Review copies are available in all seven languages. The author offers free virtual visits for universities and schools.
