Crying for Argentina

About the Book

Argentines are known for their passion, which finds its outlet in the beauty of the tango. Nina is no exception. Growing up in Buenos Aires during a time of great political unrest, Nina watches governments rise and fall at the hands of terrorists and military leaders. Meanwhile, she lives out her own passions, pursuing an education and career while becoming a wife and mother. But Argentina isn’t safe for a new family, and Nina is forced into exile in the United States. The horrors of Argentina’s Dirty War follow her even there, entangling her in accusations and lies. When Nina learns that a past decision could destroy her perfect future, she must end the new injustice before it poisons everything she has ever loved. To do this, she must return to Argentina.
