Terrorism and a financial crisis in Dani's native Argentina force her family into poverty and her dad into a depression. They eventually emigrate to America where Dani feels like an outcast until she connects with siblings affected by a similar act of terrorism: 9/11. Her father's instantaneous recovery feels rushed, but many will relate to the relevant topical issues.
