In a remote Albanian village, a place of banishment, a stranger appears, claiming to be Viktor Dragoti and looking for his long-lost love. That Viktor Dragoti has been dead for nine years, killed by the Albanian coast guard while trying to swim to freedom, only adds to the stranger's mystery--and to the suspense of this curiously real and yet otherworldly work by one of Albania's most distinguished writers. With echoes of The Return of Martin Guerre and Kafka's The Trial, with allusions to The Odyssey and the Albanian folktale of Ago Ymeri, a legendary hero released from the underworld for one day, Shehu's novel blends the autobiographical and the historical, the personal and the political into a powerful tale--a story that conveys the terrors, small and large, of a totalitarian state while capturing all that is surreal and even lyrical in life in such a deeply distorted world.

A lone traveler on a doomed starship crashes to Earth in Northern Siberia at the turn of the 20th Century. Leaving the crash site, the ancient extra-terrestrial travels south, disappearing into the haze of history. Decades later, in Toronto, Ontario, Lori Ellsworth is framed for the murder of a friend and co-worker by the vice president of Cytex Inc., the gigantic multi-national corporation she works for. Michael Quin, a down-and-out private detective with a jaded past, is hired to find her. Soon both he and Lori are being hunted; not only by the police but also by the soldiers of a powerful New York Mafia don. The lives of all these people and the aliens eventually intertwine in a story of power, greed, love and redemption.
