Discover two gripping, deeply atmospheric novels of hidden truths, political upheaval, and the lifelong search for identity across the Americas. This exclusive two-book collection brings together two beautifully rendered narratives that span decades, borders, and the complex landscapes of the human heart. In the first novel, a quiet life in San Francisco is upended by the sudden arrival of an old medical file from Argentina. What follows is a sweeping historical family saga that stretches from a bucolic Patagonian valley to the war-torn, authoritarian streets of Buenos Aires.

Benjamin lives with a name he hates in a run-down San Francisco apartment, until his brother Billy finds him. Billy's a war veteran who sleeps under a bridge with his loyal band of phone thieves, trying to avoid the police and the VA. Thirty years earlier, Benjamin had an Ivy League degree and was getting noticed for his Peace Corps work on the Ecuadorian coast. But Felicia also noticed, seducing him into a life of cajoling secrets from others to be peddled to the highest bidder. Felicia's talented protégé lived a privileged life until he made a mistake and had to flee with the name Gloria.

Tony’s quiet life with his partner in San Francisco is disrupted when an old medical folder is delivered from Argentina. Then, an email arrives. It’s Izzy, an estranged niece in Patagonia. She has news of her father’s death and questions Tony's absence.

A former military dog, a Venezuelan street mutt, and a cannibalistic Shih Tzu, who have lost their owners, escape rescue cages. Now they have to learn to survive together in a colonial Ecuadorian mountain town, bisected by winding rivers that descend to the Amazon.
