A historical literary thriller dealing with love, death, fear, and solitude.
What would you do if you accidentally killed someone?
When two bodies end up in the Danube River, Jon Mantler, a quiet and resourceful man from rural North America, finds himself drawn into the shadowy intrigues of Cold War intelligence in Europe.
Jon's traumatic childhood-his mother's disappearance, his father's sudden death, and years of loneliness-linger, shaping the person he has become and the circumstances he cannot escape.
His journey unfolds in chapters alternating between that troublesome past marked by abandonment and this perilous present in a divided Europe, where he must navigate the line between self-preservation and self-discovery.
