whether murder or suicide ended his life during the coup d'état of 1973, the two men embark on an investigation that will take them from Washington and New York to Santiago and Valparaíso and, finally, to London. They encounter unforgettable characters: a wedding photographer who can predict the future of the couple preparing to marry; a policeman pursuing a serial killer targeting refugees; a revolutionary caught in an assassination attempt on the dictator; and, above all, complex women who support them on this journey for personal, obscure reasons.

What begins as an intriguing literary adventure evolves into an engaging philosophical saga about love, family, courage, and exile, the central question of which is what we owe to the world, to each other, and to ourselves.
