In an unnamed and timeless Latin American country, the lives of six men and three police officers intertwine after a brutal murder in a gay bathhouse. Dan Landes, an expatriate retired Los Angeles cop, is recruited to hunt for a serial killer who preys on lonely men in the dark steam rooms. When it looks like the killer might get away with another murder, Dan is forced to use his friend Ricardo as bait. Explicit content. 18 and older please. From Robert Rahula, the acclaimed author of Messieurs and Conversations in a Belgium Bar, comes a graphic and "sexistential" story of sexual murder in Latin America. But behind the explicit scenes of anonymous gay sex lies a deeper story. Robert Rahula navigates this dark take on the classic murder mystery to examine the irreconcilable conflict between the North American justice system and the "old ways" of a small Latino town. Cultural assumptions of evidence, due process, sexual tolerance, fairness, and justice collide when police from different countries are forced to work together.
