By the Time I Got to Bogotá
A Novel of Delay and Consequence
Months after Elena disappeared, Thomas receives an unexpected call from her sister.
Elena passed through Bogotá.
She left behind no explanation. No forwarding address. Only the name of an unfinished building.
A private investigator by profession, Thomas has spent his life arriving after the fact, piecing together the stories other people leave behind. This time, the story is his own.
As he crosses a city of unfinished towers, narrow streets, and lives built around quiet compromises, old memories begin to surface. A promise made too casually. A phone left ringing. The small decisions that seemed harmless until they became irreversible.
What waits at the end of the journey isn't the answer he expected.
By the Time I Got to Bogotá is a restrained literary noir exploring regret, memory, and the quiet consequences of believing there will always be more time.
Perfect for readers who enjoy atmospheric literary fiction, psychological noir, and stories where the greatest mysteries are found within ordinary lives.
