      When Pepe Carvalho’s uncle asks him to find his son Raúl in Buenos Aires, Pepe is reluctant. All he knows about Argentina is “tango, Maradona, and the disappeared,” and he has no desire to find out more. But family is family, and soon Carvalho is in Buenos Aires, getting more caught up in Argentina’s troubled past than is good for anybody.

      The Buenos Aires quintet
    • "A community devoured by greed, cowardice and fear. A man persecuted by the ghosts of his painful past. A young woman searching for happiness. In one eventful week, each of them will face questions of life, death and power, and each of them will have to choose their own path. Will they choose good or evil? Coelho dramatizes the struggle with every soul between light and darkness, and its relevance to our everyday struggles: to dare to follow our dreams, to have the courage to be different and to master the fear that prevents us from truly living"--Publisher description.
