Meanwhile, men gather and hold secret meetings. Americans move in to an empty house on the compound, making things a bit better and the Americans hold a big party for their daughter's fifteenth birthday. The secret police invade her family's compound and the children are restricted from their regular activities. Her cousins suddenly leave for the United States of America and another uncle is missing. While she is looking forward to turning twelve and becoming more grown up, there are other changes occurring in her life that make her twelfth birthday somewhat insignificant. She lives on a compound with her parents, cousins, aunts, uncles, and her former nanny.
Anita attends an American school and she is friends with the children of American Ambassadors and consulates. When the story begins, Anita is eleven years old and she lives in the Dominican Republic.
Her father and uncle are involved in a plot to assassinate the dictator. She lives during a period of political unrest.
