Rédacteur dans un petit quotidien du Colorado, Moon Mathias s’est enlisé dans une existence routinière. Mais le 12 avril 1975, un coup de téléphone en provenance d’un hôpital de Los Angeles bouleverse ses habitudes. Sa mère, qu’il croyait en Floride, vient d’être victime d’un malaise cardiaque alors qu’elle s’apprêtait à s’envoler vers les Philippines. Moon partira à sa place sur les traces de son frère, décédé quelque part dans le sud-est asiatique ravagé par la guerre.
Projet longuement mûri, Moon rompt provisoirement avec la saga des policiers navajos. Mais on y retrouve la profonde humanité qui caractérise l’œuvre de Tony Hillerman.
