520 $a"Buenos Aires, 1992. Hacker Felipe Fe lix is summoned to the vertiginous twin towers of magnate Fausto Tamerla n and charged with finding the witnesses to a very public crime. Rejecting the mission is not an option. After a decade spent immersed in drugs and virtual realities, trying to forget the freezing trench in which he passed the Falklands War, Fe lix is forced to confront the city around him - and realises to his shock that the war never really ended. A detective novel, a cyber-thriller, an inner-city road trip and a war memoir, The Islands is a hilarious, devastating and dizzyingly surreal account of a history that remains all too raw"--$cfrom publisher's web site.
