Paperback. Condición: Good. From the author of The Last Night I Spent With You comes "a captivating tale of love, politics, and death" (The Charlotte Observer) For fifty years, Andrés Yasin has carried a grudge against J. T. Bunker. Now eighty-three-years-old and dying, Bunker wants to tell his side of the story, the story of his affair with Estela, Andrés's mother.
