The Sound Of Things Falling
No sooner does he get to know Ricardo Laverde in the billiard halls of Bogotá than young Colombian lawyer Antonio Yammara realises that the ex-pilot has a secret. Antonio’s fascination with his new friend’s life grows until the day Ricardo receives a mysterious cassette in an unmarked envelope. Shortly afterwards, he is shot dead on a street corner; Yammara’s investigation into what happened leads back to the early 1960s, marijuana smuggling and a time before the cocaine trade trapped Colombia in a living nightmare.
