When Adrián arrives in New York fleeing the painful end of a relationship, he has no idea that the big city will drag him into a spiral of encounters and coincidences that defy the laws of chance. A plane trip, an unexpected woman, an old photograph and a series of impossible coincidences plunge him into an obsessive search to unravel the invisible threads that connect the present with the past. Between the streets of Manhattan and the memories of a distant Madrid, the protagonist struggles between reality and his own fantasies as he tries to reconstruct a story that could have happened -- or not -- decades ago. Destiny has encounters with enigmatic characters in store for him, who will transform his perception of time and memory. Sara, an editor who keeps her own secrets, Alice, a woman who seems to emerge directly from his memories, and Woody Allen himself, whose ghostly presence hovers over the entire novel.
