One year ago, Alex Towne`s body was found. One month ago, his mother saw him on the street. One week ago, David Raker agreed to look for him. Now he wishes he hadn`t. Mary Towne`s son, Alex, went missing six years ago. Five years later he finally turned up - as a corpse in a car wreck. Missing persons investigator David Raker doesn`t want the work: it`s clearly a sad but hopeless case of mistaken identity brought to him by a woman unable to let go of her son. But haunted by a loss of his own, Raker reluctantly agrees. Big mistake. For as he digs deeper, he discovers that Alex`s life was not the innocent one his mother believed. Buried in his past are secrets that were never meant to be found - and dark, dangerous men willing to kill to...

II avait lâché le journal, qui s`était d`abord déployé sur ses genoux puis qui avait glissé lentement avant d`atterrir sur le parquet ciré. On aurait cru qu`il venait de s`endormir si, de temps en temps, une mince fente ne s`était dessinée entre ses paupières. Est-ce que sa femme était dupe? Elle tricotait, dans son fauteuil bas, de l`autre côté du foyer. Elle n`avait jamais l`air de l`observer, mais il savait depuis longtemps que rien ne lui échappait, pas même le tressaillement à peine perceptible d`un de ses muscles.

Since his death in 1967, Ernesto Che Guevara has become a universally known revolutionary icon and political figure whose image is among the most recognizable in the world. This dramatic and extensively researched book breathes new life into his story, portraying his struggle through the medium of the underground political comic - one of the most prominent countercultural art forms since the 1960s. Spain Rodriguez`s powerful artwork illuminates Che`s life and the experiences that shaped him, from his motorcycle journey through Latin America, his rise to prominence as a leader in Fidel Castro`s revolutionary movement, his travels in Africa, his involvement in the insurgency that led to his death in Bolivia, and his extraordinary legacy.

Walk through any major metropolis around the globe and it is likely that you will come across an image of Che Guevara - the Korda image of Che, that is, the face of "Guerrillero Heroico" tilted up towards some vision of the future, with his beret, tangle of locks and intense, soulful gaze that crosses cultures and time. The image may be stenciled on a wall, integrated into graffiti, reproduced on a mug or hat, or most likely screen-printed on a T-shirt and worn by anyone aged from eight to eighty. The fact is that in our global culture, with its proliferation of images beamed at us from televisions and mobile phones, this single image of a face may be the most reproduced image in the history of photography. It has been endlessly mutated,...
