Produktbeschreibung

A forensics team investigates the murder of a child and is drawn into a chilling international coverup

The body of a young boy is found floating in a city river with pollen in his lungs from a warm river valley far from the country where he died. Who is he? Why was he carrying only a library card and decorative clay bottle? How is it that he came so far, only to meet with a violent fate?

A biological anthropologist and her husband, the forensic team's translator, are tasked by their agency to gather evidence from the far away country and deliver an explanationpreferably one that suits the political regimes of both countries. But as the scientists' clandestine, parallel study of recent mass graves brings them closer to finding a link between the boy and the disappeared, the full forces of bureaucracy, fatalism, and forgetting are marshalled against them.
