Publisher's Synopsis
As a young man, Julio dreamed of leaving his poverty-stricken, cartel-run country of El Salvador behind and raising a family in a land of greater opportunity. It's only later, as the American dream lies within his grasp, that he realizes it comes at a cost. Despite years of residence in the United States, multiple attempts to gain legal status, and the successful businesses he built, Julio is treated as an outcast in his adopted home. How much is he willing to sacrifice for his family and livelihood? He-and countless immigrants like him-must face that challenge head-on.
