This “novel of suspense” from Europe’s favorite deep-think science-fictioner is rather light on the suspense, rather heavy on the philosophical implications— Kirkus Review
A former astronaut turned private detective goes on the trail in a futuristic Italy to discover why a number of people have died mysteriously. The investigation takes him to a hallucinatory world where life is cheap and accidents a matter of course.
