and grandfather. And yet something is amiss. The students on her street
are disappearing. Not only that but her parents' marriage seems to be
disintegrating and her cousin is caught up in a bombing at the Hotel
Nacional. Welcome to a world where a revolution is brewing. Welcome to
Cuba.
An insight into what it is like to be young when bad things happen and
