One day, Viejo, a fifty-year-old man, stumbles upon her hiding place, and the two strike up a friendship. He tells her about birds and Nina Simone, buys her soda and chips, and spends almost every day talking with her. Despite their age gap, there's something childlike about Viejo that leads Casi to believe that he's not like the other men she's encountered, the "dangerous ones." But Viejo has a number of secrets in his past--all of which would be of grave concern to Casi's parents or any other adult who witnessed one of their rendezvous. As these secrets rise to the surface, the clock is ticking, the weather is growing cold and the school is untangling Casi's set of lies, setting up a moment where something has to give. --from Amazon. 500 $a Originally published by Editorial Anagrama S.A. as Cara de pan, 2018. 500 $a Subtitle from cover. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Older men $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Secrecy $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Hiding places $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Prejudices $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Prejudices. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01075260 650 7 $a Friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00935174 650 7 $a Hiding places. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00955967 650 7 $a Older men. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01199154 650 7 $a Secrecy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01110644 650 7 $a Teenage girls. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145412 655 7 $a novels. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aatgf300202580 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 700 1 $a McDowell, Megan, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031823.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8DA91334664511EDB99D19AA23ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
