In the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, a series of characters from various countries cross paths: Spaniards (a journalist nicknamed «Carta Blanca», a freelance reporter, a speculator and his lover) and representatives of the powers in conflict, such as an American congressman, an activist, diplomats, Russian exiles, and historical figures such as Wilson, Churchill, Keynes, or Clemenceau. Following a murder, Commissioner Retier begins an investigation that intertwines their destinies and reveals the conflicts that arise when so many countries come together to defend disparate interests. A fascinating novel with echoes of the present day about European identity, set before the Treaty of Versailles and the rise of the United States as a world power.
