Buenos Aires, 1992. Hacker Felipe Felix is summoned to the twin towers of magnate Fausto Tamerlan and charged with finding witnesses to a very public crime. Refusal is not an option. After a decade immersed in virtual realities, trying to forget the Falklands War, Felix has to confront the city - and realises that the war never really ended.
Drawing on the legacy of Argentina's Dirty War, Carlos Gamerro's An Open Secret is a compelling postmodern thriller confronting guilt, complicity and the treachery of language itself.
Eines Morgens lässt Urbano Pedernera, früherer Militärkommandant und mittlerweile Richter in Malihuel, den Gaucho Rosendo Villalba verhaften, weil dieser ihn in seinen Träumen zutiefst beleidigt hatte. Erst sorgenvoll, dann leidenschaftlich träumt er Nacht für Nacht von den Verbrechen, die die Bewohner des Dorfes an der argentinischen Grenze inmitten der Pampa begehen und die er tags darauf mit despotischer Härte bestraft. Für die Bewohner von Malihuel beginnt ein Albtraum am helllichten Tag, der den Richter am Ende selbst einholt.
