After the failed Bay of Pigs mission solidifies Castro's power in Cuba, 12-year-old Cumba's parents make the difficult decision to send him to Florida by himself. Before leaving, he tries to remember the sound of his father's clarinet and the smell of his mother's lavender perfume. Life in the United States presents a series of challenges. As he adapts to a new country, language, and culture, he wonders if he will ever be reunited with his family.
