After papá's arrest in 1980, Daniel's family fled to the United States. Now Daniel has a new life, playing guitar in a rock band and dating Courtney, a minister's daughter. He hopes to become a US citizen as soon as he turns eighteen. This powerful coming-of-age story portrays an immigrant teen's struggle to reach his tortured father and find his place in the world.
