Felipe's quest takes him on a meandering exploration of a new, yet somewhat familiar country, and puts him into close contact with the harsh realities of life in the many layers of a fascinating but complex society. Just as he comes upon a priceless archeological treasure that has remained hidden for centuries, he confronts an unspeakable tragedy which leaves him reeling.

It changes him profoundly and forever. This luminous, multi-generational novel is certain to engage anyone who craves an absorbing story with highly original, deeply affecting characters. Its prose is so heartfelt and evocative, you, the reader, are guaranteed to turn the last page longing for more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J. Rouzier,M.
