4 CITIES, 4 LIVES, 1 CRIME - In Madrid, an Argentinian bookseller
gets caught up in the scheme of an American professor to prevent an
appalling crime. Her sidekicks soon include a Gambian migrant in
Paris and a Spanish waitress in London. Seeking some sort of
companionship in their exiles, the four characters join forces in a
quest that becomes a dangerous obsession. All four lives seem to be
fatefully connected. But how to get people to take the crime
seriously if it does not yet exist? In Buenos Aires, the criminals
are remorselessly pursued. They cross paths with a Nigerian judge,
the wife of one of General Franco's thugs, a caretaker to the
wealthy, and Peter Halbtsen, an expert in Chinese culture. It is
early March 2004. Halbtsen has spent years deciphering a book which
may hold the key to the mystery. But where is the crime? Who is the
criminal? And can anything be done to prevent humanity from reaping
the whirlwind?
