Product Description

 
Thomas Railles, a former CIA agent turned painter, lives in Southern France, apparently far removed from the turbulent forces of the world. But when his wife Florette is murdered, and the French government invites him to observe the interrogation of the four Moroccans accused of killing her, Railles finds himself drawn obsessively into the "sturm und drang" of troubling times. With the Iraq war and the threat of terrorism as a backdrop, National Book Award finalist Ward Just paints a searing picture of a man's personal life suddenly infected by the violence and injustice that is the global political reality.
