A NATIONAL BESTSELLER
A "NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW" NOTABLE BOOK
Six months after losing his wife and two young sons, Vermont
Professor David Zimmer spends his waking hours mired in a blur of
alcoholic grief and self-pity. One night, he stumbles upon a clip
from a lost film by silent comedian Hector Mann. His interest is
piqued, and he soon finds himself embarking on a journey around the
world to research a book on this mysterious figure, who vanished
from sight in 1929.
When the book is published the following year, a letter turns up
in Zimmer's mailbox bearing a return address from a small town in
New Mexico inviting him to meet Hector. Zimmer hesitates, until one
night a strange woman appears on his doorstep and makes the
decision for him, changing his life forever.
