The International Bestseller of the Spanish Civil War - Winner of
the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize In the final moments of the
Spanish Civil War, fifty prominent Nationalist prisoners are
executed by firing squad. Among them is the writer and fascist
Rafael Sanchez Mazas. As the guns fire, he escapes into the forest,
and can hear a search party and their dogs hunting him down. The
branches move and he finds himself looking into the eyes of a
militiaman, and faces death for the second time that day. But the
unknown soldier simply turns and walks away. Sanchez Mazas becomes
a national hero and the soldier disappears into history. As Cercas
sifts the evidence to establish what happened, he realises that the
true hero may not be Sanchez Mazas at all, but the soldier who
chose not to shoot him. Who was he? Why did he spare him? And might
he still be alive? Translated from the Spanish by Anne McLean
