In 1970s Paris, a group of revolutionaries plot the daring kidnapping of a powerful Latin American official. But among them is Andrs, a man adrift in a world of high-stakes politics.

As Andrs spirals into a crisis of identity, Cortzar intersects the groups story with real-life documents, newspaper clippings, and personal reflections to construct a compelling mosaic that explores the complexities of revolution, commitment, and the human spirit.
