The Protagonist comes face to face with a former agent of the DINA-the Secret Police of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet-who reveals the true motive behind his father's murder: a prominent Chilean politician, an outspoken opponent of the regime, assassinated in Washington, D.C. And that is where it all began... November 1975 In Santiago, Chile, the leaders of the military intelligence services of Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay-and the CIA-gather in secret. August 1976 Clandestinely, a complete file detailing that meeting in Santiago and its consequences is sent to a Chilean opposition politician in Washington, D.C. September 1976 The opposition politician and his secretary are assassinated. Their car explodes just two blocks from the White House, in Washington, D.C. July 2006 This is where the relentless search for the truth begins-Crist bal Teller, the son of the murdered politician, must uncover the secret files once sent to his father. Files that allegedly reveal: Why they met, and for what purpose. What role the CIA played in that gathering. Whether those files, had they been exposed, could have brought down the military dictatorships in South America. Whether those same files sealed his father's fate.And perhaps... the true reason his father was assassinated at the hands of Chile's military regime.
