About this listen

During a sweltering South American summer, a family convenes for dinner at a restaurant. Midway through the meal, Carlos disappears. An experienced, semi-retired inspector takes the case, but what should be a routine investigation becomes something strange, intangible, even sinister.

The corporation for which Carlos worked seems to serve no purpose; the staff talk of their missing colleague's alarming, shifting physical symptoms; a forensic scientist uncovers evidence of curious abnormalities in the thriving microorganisms that shared Carlos's body.

As the inspector relives and retraces the missing man's footsteps, the trail leads him away from the city sprawl and deep into the country's rainforest interior, where he encounters both horror and wonder.

"Smart, clever, and honest. I doubt you've read anything quite like it."—JEFF VANDERMEER

It feels like the author is trying to be Ishiguro or he's just set down a stream of consciousness, imitating the inside of a madman's head. Or he's having a laugh at the reader's expense. I listened to the end hoping for an actual story but I was sadly disappointed.

A practical joke?
