From Publishers Weekly Raymondo Cruz, killed robbing a bank with a water pistol, leaves behind three sons; he watches over them in spirit form, appearing only to his eldest, Victor. Marquezian in flavor and . . . distinctly Americanurban in spirit, said PW. Veteran short story writer Roth tells the brothers improbable adventures with a gritty, lively realism. Copyright 1991 Cahners Business Information, Inc. Product Description When Raymundo Cruz realizes that he can never provide even minimally for his family, he decides to rob a bank with a squirt gun. The attempt fails and the little man suffers an impersonal death surrounded by a jeering mob. His three sons are left in the care of their slatternly motherbut not for long, for the childrens court puts them in the custody of the Sacred Home for Fallen Angels upstate. Here the ghost of Raymundo hovers over them, directly communicating with eldest Victor and offering advice for their survival. Before he is 12, Victor steals and wrecks two cars, makes threats to his teachers and indulges in arson, but his fathers advice always sees him through. The boys later attempts at crime are as hilarious as the parade of characters that crosses their paths. This first novel by an experienced short story writer is fast moving and never boring.
