About this ebook

A metaphysical noir and enthralling tale of love from a master stylist

Called to Mexico City by the alluring and enigmatic wife of a vanished billionaire, a private investigator with unusual “sympathetic powers” agrees to solve the mystery of the man’s disappearance. Ludovico Cruz was admired by many for his commitment to social justice, but were his protectors his true friends or in the pay of his enemies? Had he fled, or been kidnapped or murdered by the forces of a brutal dictatorship?

Stalked by corrupt cops and their henchmen, whisked away to secret caves, and haunted by the aura of the man he seeks, our hero must navigate the labyrinthine tunnels of memory and the human heart to close the case.
