Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Exiled by his own family for being too visible, too defiant, too himself, Tomás Moreno is abandoned in La Corona-a forgotten jungle town in the far northeastern corner of Colombia. The son of the Minister of the Interior finds himself in a place with no electricity, no running water, and no escape. But in this prison of his family's making, Tomás discovers something unexpected: purpose.As teacher, healer, and advocate for the powerless villagers of La Corona, he navigates the impossible space between guerrillas, the oil company, and the military. When rebels repeatedly sabotage the nearby pipeline, toxic oil floods the river that sustains the town, and Tomás becomes the only voice fighting for people who have none.Then Felix Amaral arrives-a Brazilian engineer working with the cleanup crew-and for the first time in years, Tomás glimpses the possibility of love. Suddenly, he's summoned back to Bogotá to join peace negotiations that could end the war. But returning to the family that rejected him means confronting his past. In a land where survival demands compromise and silence, can Tomás claim both love and purpose-or must he sacrifice one to save the other?A powerful story of love, of identity, of resilience, and of finding family in the most unexpected places.
