Description
'Then I heard them. At first, there had been no sound. Then, faintly, there it was, the near silent echo of footsteps.'
Barcelona 1937, the city is embroiled in a Civil War. The struggle for survival amid a climate of political mistrust, uncertainty and the pervasive fear of death, is softened only by the strength afforded by family and friends.
A young British man, George Olivella, arrives in the city looking for his family and anything that will help him make sense of his life. Seventy years later, Barcelona is a vibrant and successful city. The time is right for George Olivella to tell his tale, yet he knows his story will expose deep-rooted passions that will threaten his life. Into this scenario he entices his young protége, a young Spanish man looking to find meaning to his own life.
