About this ebook

The powerful, gripping conclusion to the award-winning Venery Series. Grounded in the real-world history of Chile’s Operation Condor, this historical drama explores stolen children, genetic heritage, and a family’s fight for the truth.

Juleón "Jude" Tholet is an accomplished, closeted gay pianist rebuilding his life in Seattle. Surrounded by a family that loves him, Jude believes his history is set in stone—until a routine DNA test delivers a devastating shock: he is not biologically related to the parents who raised him.

To uncover the truth behind his birth, the Tholet family must unearth long-buried secrets from 1973 Santiago. Their search takes them back through Pinochet's military dictatorship, political detention camps, exile, and the harrowing stories of Los Desaparecidos (The Disappeared Ones).

Poignant and unforgettable, A Scarcity of Condors weaves a powerful story of survival, identity, and the extraordinary lengths a family will go to protect one another.
