About this book

This "haunting tale of quiet intensity" (Review of Contemporary Fiction) parallels the story of Jean B., a filmmaker who abandons his wife and career to hole up in a Paris hotel with Ingrid and Riguad, a refugee couple he'd met twenty years before, and whose mystery continues to haunt him. Little by little their existence takes on more reality than Jean's own, as his excavation of the past becomes an all encompassing obsession.
