The mysterious death of the Canadian magnate Boy Staunton--whose drowned body was found inside his car at the bottom of the port of Toronto--has traumatized his son David, who, as opposed to the police, is convinced his father was murdered. Wanting to rid himself of his obsession, David travels to Zurich so as to be treated at the Jung Institute. Forced by the psychiatrists to search his memory, David will begin to uncover an extraordinary collection of characters and memories that will allow him to face his own demons and, more importantly, his father's memory. Although it can be read on its own, this novel is the second installment of the Deptford Trilogy. This time Davies explores the deep recesses of the human mind where our inner monsters lay waiting. Although it can be read independently, this novel is the second installment of The Deptford Trilogy. "La misteriosa muerte del magnate canadiense Boy Staunton--al que han encontrado ahogado dentro de su coche en el fondo del puerto de Toronto--ha trastornado a su hijo David, quien al contrario que la policia, esta convencido de que su padre fue asesinado. Decidido a librarse de su obsesion, David viaja a Zurich para psicoanalizarse en el Instituto Jung. Obligado por los psiquiatras a indagar en su memoria, David ira sacando a la luz una extraordinaria galeria de personajes y recuerdos que le permitiran enfrentarse con sus propios demonios y, sobre todo, con la memoria de su padre. Aunque puede ser leida de manera independiente, esta novela constituye la segunda parte de la Trilogia de Deptford. Esta vez Davies se adentra en las regiones mas profundas de la mente humana, en aquellas donde se agazapan nuestros monstruos. "Aunque puede ser leida independientemente, esta novela es el segundo libro de la Trilogia de Deptford.""
