Una detonación en los suburbios de París. Un cadáver perturbador. Antiguos correligionarios, hoy en el establishment, se ven abocados a rememorar su pertenencia a un grupo armado en los convulsos años setenta, con la banda Baader-Meinhof en el epicentro. Sucesos de diversa índole les obligan a ajustar cuentas con su pasado y con su compromiso ideológico. Una novela que, aun teniendo el foco en los movimientos estudiantiles que desembocaron, tras el sesenta y ocho, en una amalgama de subtramas terroristas, se adentra en las contradicciones que todo ello conlleva. Acción y reflexión encuentran en las brumas y recovecos de los personajes su particular acomodo.
