Havana in a state of emergency: The historic visit of Obama and the legendary Rolling Stones concert are just around the corner. American tourists are cheering in the streets, exclusive bars are serving expensive drinks. Amidst the atmosphere of change, Conde is investigating an unpleasant case: a notorious art censor has been found dead, a man who destroyed many lives. At the same time, Conde delves into a Cuban legend: in 1909, when Halley's Comet creates a sense of impending doom, a murder in the red-light district ignites a feud between two gangster bosses. To Conde's surprise, unexpected connections emerge between the present and the past. In a Havana filled with ecstasy and despair, an epic criminal case evokes echoes of a tumultuous century.
