Buenos Aires, 1992. Hacker Felipe Félix is summoned to the vertiginous
twin towers of magnate Fausto Tamerlán and charged with finding the
witnesses to a very public crime. Rejecting the mission is not an
option. After a decade spent trying to forget the freezing trench in
which he passed the Falklands War, Félix is forced to confront the city
around him - and realises to his shock that the war never really
ended.
A detective novel, a cyber-thriller, an inner-city road trip and a war
memoir, The Islands is a hilarious, devastating and dizzyingly surreal
account of a history that remains all too raw.
