Twenty years ago Martin Limón published his first mystery featuring Sergeant George Sueño, a young Mexican American army detective stationed on the US Eighth Army base in South Korea in the early 1970s, the heart of the Cold War.

Ramiro’s hopes and dreams are modest and realistic, yet, as the title suggests, the book shows that a man’s best plans can often go astray.

Zuhörer so deutlich vor seinem imaginären Auge, dass man das Gefühl hat, sich bewegende Bilder zu verfolgen.
