The Cuban Girl tells the story of a young detective's search for a Cuban American girl who has mysteriously disappeared. The context for the book is the culture of the United States in the 1960s - cars, music, food and baseball - with an added accent on the rich culture and intense politics of 1960s' Cuban America. The story begins in the Twin Cities of Minnesota but goes on to explore the state of mind of America before the country plunged into the Viet Nam War.
