Four Hands: A Novel

by Paco Ignacio Taibo II · 1990

+ Want to read

Greg Simon and Julio Fernandez are investigative jounalists who are chasing down an elaborate conspiracy plot. The story they discover and type out together weaves truth with lies, wild humor with tragedy, and reality with fantasy—a stranger-than-fiction tale of imperial excess where delusion makes perfect sense.
