Pérez-Reverte, Arturo. (Author). Peden, Margaret Sayers. (Added Author).

Summary:

Faulques, a war photographer, witnessed most of the wars of the end of the 20th century, but he was never able to capture the photo that would explain the chaos of the universe. Now, as he continues to try to understand it, he starts painting a grand circular fresco on the inside wall of a tower on the Mediterranean, disturbed by the memories of a woman he can never forget, and an unexpected visit: a man who wants to kill him.
