A Peruvian literary master returns with a provocative novel about the intersection of retribution and reconciliation--and a soldier's quest to confront the ghosts of his past after the Shining Path's reign of terror has ended.

Adrian Ormache, a high-flying lawyer with a wife and two daughters, leads a privileged and glamorous life in one of Lima's wealthiest neighbourhoods. But when his mother dies, he discovers a letter amongst her possessions making shocking claims about her now long-dead husband, a commander in the army during the Peruvian Civil War of the 1980s.
