At 35, John Balthasar finds his life stale and his mental health deteriorating. A visit to Spain rekindles feelings of shame for having betrayed a Basque rebel ten years ago, and making amends to this man becomes paramount in his life. This decision leads him into a web of intrigue where the real and the fantastic interplay, turning what once was a vague gesture into a means of self-destruction. The settings are, appropriately, Spain, Miami, and New York, where personal crisis often manifests itself as public disaster: "The pain of America at dusk." Recommended.
